Why do small leaf red sandalwood bracelets turn black?

1. In fact, one of the biggest reasons why the color of rosewood bracelets will become darker is that the pterostilbene contained in the rosewood wood will become darker and darker after oxidation. This is the material characteristic of red sandalwood itself and cannot be changed. However, if you pay more attention to it, the natural oxidation will be slowed down after it is coated with pulp.

2. Another factor that causes the color of red sandalwood bracelets to turn black is that you do not wear gloves when wearing or playing with them. In this way, oils, sweat and other secretions on the skin surface will adhere to the surface of the beads and undergo chemical processes such as oxidation. After the reaction, the beads become dark and dull. Therefore, if you don’t want your small-leaf rosewood bracelets to turn black, the best way is to try to avoid oxidation, and be sure to wear gloves when playing with them.
