How to identify mahogany furniture

Experts count the mahogany furniture "purchase"

In recent years, mahogany furniture that is both practical and collectible is a "good heart" for many people. Every year, the public opening day of the China-ASEAN Expo, many people come to buy the favorite mahogany furniture. Then, in such a short period of time, how to identify and select, can you find the cost-effective mahogany furniture? On September 16th, experts from Guangxi Redwood Furniture Association and reporters went to the exhibition hall to count the purchase of mahogany furniture.

A look at materials and processes

The so-called mahogany furniture does not refer to furniture made of a specific tree species, but is a general term for rare hardwood furniture since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The mahogany furniture is good, and the materials and processes are “hard indicators”. In the afternoon, Professor Xu Feng, the chief consultant of Guangxi Redwood Furniture Association, visited the exhibition hall and found that at this year's East Fair, mahogany furniture was dominated by red rosewood and rosewood. He felt that “the overall quality of mahogany furniture is above average. ".

Xu Feng told reporters that Southeast Asian countries have always been the main producers of redwoods. The redwoods of Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar are more famous, and the quality of wood is comparable. At present, in the international market, the price of red rosewood logs is about 35,000 yuan / ton, and the price of rosewood is fluctuating between 20,000 yuan / ton and 25,000 yuan / ton.

The public can choose according to the comprehensive situation of materials and crafts of mahogany furniture. Xu Feng said that the red rosewood wood has a sour smell when it is "raw material", but it is not smellable on the finished furniture. In contrast, the color of the red rosewood wood is reddish, and the wood grain in the depth and depth can be clearly seen. The longitudinal line of the longitudinal section is finer and denser. The rosewood is yellowish in color, the longitudinal section of the tube is thicker and the density is relatively lower.

In addition, the mahogany furniture process is mainly divided into two types: manual and machine-engraved. If it is the same pattern, the manual is definitely more expensive than the machine. The difference is 1~3 times or even higher; but if the carving is difficult, the complexity is different. There may also be cases where the mechanism is more expensive than the manual.

Second, look at the thickness and other details

How can I choose mahogany furniture with relatively high cost performance? On the same day, Xu Feng gave an example of a set of 10 sets of rosewood sofas in Hall 14. This rosewood sofa belongs to Qing style furniture and is priced at 140,000 yuan.

Xu Feng carefully looked at the furniture and thought that the offer was slightly higher. Xu Feng said that under normal circumstances, the production of such 10 sets requires about 1.5 tons of logs, and the price of converted logs is nearly 40,000 yuan. If you look closely, you will find that the color of the left and right ends of the wood in the furniture is darker than the upper and lower ends, and the color is not coordinated enough. In addition, the coffee table and the sofa panel are not single boards, but are made of three pieces of wood.

Xu Feng told reporters that when buying mahogany furniture, whether it is a coffee table, a sofa, or a bed, you should pay attention to the "legs and feet" of the furniture. If the same wood is similar in style, the leg and foot diameter of 8 cm should be less than 12 cm. 1/3 of the wood. Whether the material is sufficient or not can be judged from the thickness of the furniture panel. Usually, the thickness of the table of coffee table, table and chair of mahogany furniture will be 1.5cm or more, but some are only 1~1.2cm thick. In addition to the use of materials, the material “Hao Hao Hao” can also affect the price of mahogany furniture. For example, if the table top of the coffee table is made of 3 pieces of wood, it must be cheaper than that made of a piece of whole wood.

Suspicion can be sent for detection

Xu Feng said that since February 1, 2013, China has implemented the new "General Technical Conditions for Redwood Furniture", all must sell "One Book, One Card, One Card", that is, mahogany furniture product manual, mahogany furniture. Product quality express card and product certification. Therefore, at the East Expo, if you buy mahogany furniture from domestic companies and merchants, you can ask the other party to show "one book, one card, one card". Xu Feng suggested that consumers should buy redwood furniture. Before paying, they must ask for the tree species. If the furniture has problems, they can be returned and indicated on the receipt provided.

What should I do if I have doubts about the purchase of mahogany furniture? Xu Feng said that at present, Guangxi has a testing agency for mahogany, such as Guangxi University Forest Products Quality Testing Center, Guangxi Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute, etc., all of which can issue special wood species identification certificates with legal effect. After the inspection, generally 7 working days can be concluded, the inspection of mahogany furniture charges about 1100 yuan / set.
