    I would like to report to you my personal experience: In the early 80s of the last century, the old man in the family bought a Pontianak Cantonese Republic of China style kang bed in a store in Guangzhou (it seems to be a store of the Yuzhu Timber Factory), no artificial drying (there was no such thing at that time), no color, no lacquer, no wax, completely original ecological bare, rough polishing, handmade taste is very strong, the clerk said that this is completely in accordance with the traditional method of production. When I first used it, it was still light brown color, and after a few years, I continued to sit and sleep, and constantly "polished" with human skin, and gradually the color became slightly darker.

    After more than ten years of use, the bed, backrest, armrests and other parts that often come into contact with the human body turn black or dark brown. It wasn't until nearly 30 years later this year that it was completely oily and deep black, and almost the entire bed was uniformly colored (except that the oil and pulp were brighter and warmer in the parts that often come into contact with the human body). Many people think that this is the furniture of the Republic of China, but they don't know that it is only produced in the 80s of the last century.

    It can be seen that the method of not drying, not lacquering, not waxing, and not conforming to the color, at least in Guangdong, the hardwood furniture production tradition exists, which is not an uncommon thing. Personal opinion, the level is limited, don't blame you for being wrong. View the original post
