Do wooden captive beads work?

Hey, I came across these wooden hoops with captive beads. Anyone given organic a try in this style? I've only seen steel captives.

I think they'd work at first but they might get kind of messed up over time. Like, I can see part of the bead getting ground down from the ring from taking it out/putting it in repeatedly, if that makes sense. Also, wood isn't exactly flexible so it might be kind of difficult to get the bead out in the first place. Too bad there aren't any reviews... maybe search on Google for some other wooden captive bead rings and see if there are customer reviews.
