Hainan Kyara Agarwood Bracelet – 108 Round Beads

This Oudgo product is a Hainan-labeled agarwood mala with 108 round beads, elastic stringing and selectable 6 mm, 7 mm or 8 mm bead sizes. The catalog lists a total weight range of 10–14 g and China as the origin. Choose a variation only after comparing bead diameter, finished-strand handling, current price and the product photographs.

Product disclosure: “Hainan Kyara” is the trade name used for this listing. The word kyara is not presented here as an independently standardized grade, laboratory result or botanical identification. The hidden legacy species attribute was removed because the current product record did not provide batch evidence sufficient to establish a species.

What Do the Product Photos Show?

The gallery shows a long strand of brown round beads with visible light-and-dark grain variation, a larger focal area and short beaded tails. Several photographs show the strand looped around a gloved hand; close-ups show drilled holes, cord and surface pattern. These images are evidence of the photographed sample, not a guarantee that every natural-looking grain mark, shade or pattern will be identical.

The six gallery images now have descriptive alt text tied to what each image shows. Oudgo does not use the images to claim that color, grain, scent or a sinking test proves agarwood quality. Use the real-versus-fake agarwood evidence guide before relying on one visual cue.

Which Bead Size Should You Choose?

Choose diameter by the scale and handling of the full strand, not by a universal men’s or women’s wrist chart. The old description mapped 4–9 mm beads to single wrist sizes, but a 108-bead mala is much longer than a standard one-turn bracelet.

A useful arithmetic estimate is:

Approximate bead-only length = 108 × bead diameter

The estimate excludes gaps, cord path, the focal/guru area, tail beads and construction tolerances. It is not a measured finished length. Contact Oudgo before ordering if an exact laid-flat length, wrap count or variation weight is necessary. The 108-bead agarwood mala collection guide explains full-mala sizing in more detail.

How Can This 108-Bead Mala Be Used?

The strand can be held for personal counting practice, worn as a necklace or wrapped when its length and elastic condition make that comfortable. Museum records document 108-bead prayer strands in Buddhist contexts, but traditions differ on starting point, direction, focal beads and symbolism. This product page does not prescribe a universal religious method.

For ordinary wear, avoid catching or overstretching the elastic. Do not use a hot-wire, scratch, soak or direct-flame test on the beads. Do not heat or apply perfume or oil to intensify scent. Historical or personal use does not establish a medical benefit, guaranteed focus, “spiritual energy,” balance or positivity.

How Should You Evaluate the Hainan and Kyara Claims?

Treat Hainan as the stated source and Kyara as a seller trade term that requires context. Neither word replaces product-specific evidence.

• Origin: the WooCommerce origin field states China and the listing identifies Hainan. Keep the invoice and product record with that claim.
• Species: this page does not assign a species without batch-level documentation.
• Grade: “Kyara” is not used as a universal grade or a promise that the material meets another seller’s definition.
• Aroma: scent can vary with material, storage, treatment and the person evaluating it; no country-specific fragrance hierarchy is promised.
• Quality: compare construction, bead consistency, condition, disclosure and evidence rather than one color or water test.
• Trade: agarwood-producing taxa are CITES-listed, and applicable documentation depends on product form, source and route. A product title is not a permit.

See the agarwood quality and grading framework for a seven-factor method and the agarwood types and trade-terms guide for the kinam/kynam/kyara boundary.

How Do You Care for the Mala?

• Wipe the beads gently with a clean, dry, soft cloth after wear.
• Blot accidental moisture and allow the strand to dry away from direct heat.
• Keep it away from perfume, sanitizer, detergent and strongly scented storage.
• Store separately from hard jewelry that can scratch the beads or snag the cord.
• Inspect the elastic, knots, focal area, tail cords and drilled holes periodically.
• Stop wearing the strand if the elastic frays, becomes brittle or no longer returns normally.

Follow the complete agarwood bracelet and mala care guide. Care can protect the object, but it does not authenticate material or restore damaged elastic.

What Should You Verify Before Checkout?

• The selected variation is 6 mm, 7 mm or 8 mm.
• The cart shows the matching variation SKU and current price.
• The 10–14 g catalog range is sufficient, or you have requested exact variation weight.
• The photos and description answer your questions about the photographed construction.
• You understand that color and grain can vary between beads and natural-looking samples.
• Shipping destination, duties and any import requirements have been checked.
• You have read the current Shipping & Delivery and Refund and Returns Policy instead of relying on a hard-coded return promise in an old description.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this exactly 108 beads?

The product attribute states 108 beads for the main mala. Gallery photos also show focal and tail components. Ask whether any extra component is included in a physical count if that distinction matters to your practice.

Can this 108-bead mala fit on a wrist?

It may wrap several times because the string is elastic, but fit depends on finished length, bead diameter, cord spacing and wrist circumference. It is not equivalent to a normal single-turn bracelet.

What is the difference between the 6 mm, 7 mm and 8 mm options?

Diameter changes bead scale and the arithmetic length of 108 beads. The catalog lists the same construction and a 10–14 g overall weight range; request measured variation details if exact weight or finished length matters.

Does Kyara guarantee the highest agarwood grade?

No. “Kyara” is the trade term in this product name, not an independently standardized grade or laboratory result. Evaluate the item’s evidence, condition, construction and disclosures.

Is the species Aquilaria crassna?

This page does not assign a botanical species because the current product record does not provide sufficient batch documentation for that conclusion. The old hidden species attribute was removed rather than repeated as fact.

Does this mala have proven health or spiritual benefits?

Oudgo does not present the mala as a treatment or promise focus, calm, energy, balance or another guaranteed outcome. Cultural or personal use should not be converted into a clinical claim.
