Does mahogany furniture fade and why does it darken over time

Mahogany furniture has excellent wood, but at first glance when you hear that mahogany will fade, most consumers who have just come into contact will think that what they are buying is not mahogany or mahogany furniture with bad material. In fact, other hardwoods, such as firewood and softwood, will not fade, but fading is a material characteristic of mahogany furniture. Therefore, there is no need to panic, this fading is a normal phenomenon, and with the increase of years of use, the fading phenomenon will weaken or even disappear.

The reason why mahogany furniture will fade is that it contains dark mahogany pigments, in addition, dark mahogany has a high density, cytoplasm (non-striped, reticulated wood fibers) content, and the cytoplasm of colloidal powder is in a semi-free state, which is relatively soluble in water and alcohol.

Wipe the new furniture with a dry cloth, or simply scrub it with a damp cloth, and wax it again, taking care to reduce the adhesion of water and alcohol. In addition, the small leaf red sandalwood chair should be used for a period of time first, and don't lean on the back of the small leaf red sandalwood chair after sweating, because it will stain your shirt red! After a year, it doesn't matter if you use it or not, the furniture itself will not fade.

Mahogany furniture is exposed to the sun, the furniture will fade, the wood is easy to crack, the mahogany furniture must be protected from light, to prevent drying, hard scraping, etc., simple use or friction, mahogany furniture will be used for a long time, decades or even hundreds of years. Thank you.
