The value all depends on where you are in the world. Teak, African mohogany, black walnut, etc are by far the most expensive in my area of the northwest US. Red cedar grows and ash grow on my property so it's cheap.

Honorable mention: Macassar Ebony; fifty years is still juvenile, two hundred years is adult, three hundred years is ripen to fell.
P.s. All expensive wood are tropical, and wood is the most precious material in the entire universe

In Thailand, teak, rosewood and maka are illegal to harvest without a permit. penalty: 1 year in prison. I was there and bought some old rosewood slabs that had been used by hill tribers for walking planks set upon muddy trails. I bought 4, each was 2" thick, 5' long and about 17" wide (variable). I used two to make a beautiful table. Up to 22 growth rings per inch. I also planted dozens of rosewood and maka seedlings in northern Thailand.

The most expensive wood belongs to aqularia tree suspected to be capable of producing resin called kynam/kyara. The wood is priced at an average $500 dollars per gram. Again, PER GRAM. Even expensive and rarer that any gymstone like pink diamond or any mineral like platinum.

The biggest recorded finding of this wood is 16 kilogram which was bought in an auction for over $30 million.

Agarwood which is also belong to aquilaria tree capable of producing a normal resin is priced at $15.00 per gram. Again, PER GRAM. So akilo of it would reach $15, 000. This is just an average price because a good quality of agarwood can fetch up to $100, 000 per kilo.

Thank me later!

Agarwood which is basically an aquilaria tree (found in Southeast and South Asia) infected by a particular type of mold is by far the most expensive of them all. It is the only wood I know that's being sold per gram.

When speaking about the precious timbers most of the people including the authors of this video think of the woods from the rainforests in various tropical areas. In fact one of the most expensive timbers on Earth can be found in Russia, a Karelian Birch wood.

Teakwood(Indian) is an excellent wood. It marvels me whenever I stare at its grains. It's God's creation.

Not sure that I can agree with many on your list. The expensive woods that have been excluded would make a top 20… I know, this isn’t an easy list to put together and it can change given market conditions which include CITIES status.
