The depth of red-brown wood
Xiaoye zitan is the Chinese name used for red sandalwood, Pterocarpus santalinus. The material is appreciated in Chinese woodcraft and bead collecting for its dense grain and rich red-brown appearance. In some of our older listings it is described as rosewood; the material description identifies the species.
A tablet cut makes the grain feel precise and graphic, while a rounded bead gives the wood a fuller presence. Pale jade and warmer wood accents offer different ways to break the darker sequence. The result is an everyday accessory with a clear connection to Eastern material culture and an easy place beside contemporary clothing.
Care for your beads
Keep wood beads dry and away from perfume, cleaners and direct heat. Wipe gently after wear. Natural wood color and surface sheen may develop over time.
A few useful details
Is this the same as green or Laoshan sandalwood?
No. This collection is for products identified as red sandalwood, xiaoye zitan or Pterocarpus santalinus. Green sandalwood and Laoshan sandalwood are separate materials.
Why do some listings say rosewood?
Some existing product descriptions use rosewood alongside Pterocarpus santalinus. They are included here because the description explicitly identifies red sandalwood's species.
What does the size of a double wrap mean?
Read the specific listing. Where a size is described as wrist fit, it refers to the intended wrist size rather than the full unwrapped strand length.
