Now in the mahogany furniture, sour branch wood (red, black), wenge, African sandalwood (red sandalwood) is more common, can be accurately identified, not a piece of two pieces of furniture, a day or two can be understood, or slowly look, carefully tasted, do not rush.

The mahogany water is too deep, and when you buy furniture, you can only choose the brand. Buy-ins from well-known brands. A lot of mahogany, even the expert can't understand it.

If you see more, it will be clear, and there are several common ones! Let me introduce you: chicken wings, non-sour, non-flower, Burmese flower, slightly concave, large red sour branch.

There are many kinds of wood used in mahogany furniture, and there are 33 kinds of wood in five genera and eight categories of mahogany according to the national standard, such ......as Hainan Huanghuali, Vietnam Huanghuali, big red sour branches, and small-leaved red sandalwoodProfessionals on how to distinguish these woods, Melunmei has put forward some reference opinions for you.

According to a mahogany business owner, there are many varieties of mahogany, which are produced in Southeast Asian countries, India and Africa, but the price of wood varies greatly from different origins. Some businesses do not indicate the origin of the timber or are deliberately confused, and consumers often find it difficult to distinguish between them.

For example, the Vietnamese Huanghuali is pretended to be Hainan Huanghuali - both are very fragrant after sawing, the patterns are gorgeous and colorful after polishing, the color is mostly golden yellow, the wooden pores are very small, the feel is smooth, and the polishing is smooth as a mirror, and there are many nodules that will form grimace lines. However, the texture of Hainan Huanghuali is clear and recognizable, and the thickness is consistent, vivid and lively; The texture of Vietnamese huanghuali is slightly coarse, and most of them are turbid, different in width and narrowness, intermittent, and some of the texture will change sharply. Vietnamese Huanghuali does not have the fragrance of Hainan Huanghuali, the color is lighter, and the grimace lines are slightly worse, but its wood is thicker than that of Hainan Huanghuali.

For example, African ebony and Kaliman sandalwood are often used in the market to mix striped ebony, because they also have black stripes. Striped ebony has more black stripes and less white stripes, while African ebony and Kaliman sandalwood have more white stripes. Ebony wood has a fine structure, a large proportion, sinks in water, and has no aroma.

In addition, African wenge is often passed off as Burmese wenge in the market, as the former is only a fraction of the price of the latter. When identifying, one is the smoothness, Burmese wenge is smooth and delicate, and African wenge is rougher; the second is the specific gravity, the density of Wenge in Myanmar is larger; The third is to look at the style, Myanmar wenge has few large boards, can only make chairs, several types of small pieces of furniture, while African wenge raw materials have a thick diameter, can be made into large cabinets, Luohan beds and other large pieces of furniture.
