Wood species origin is difficult to determine
The protagonist of this incident is two sets of mahogany furniture, one set of three pieces of single-board Arhat bed, and one pair of single-piece big four-piece top cabinets, all of which are made of more precious Huanghuali. When the new owner was rejoicing after the purchase, he was told by his friend that the furniture material he bought was Vietnamese Huanghua Pear instead of Hainan Huanghua Pear, which was really good value for money. The price difference between them was more than 10 times.
What is the difference between Hainan Huanghua Pear and Vietnam Huanghua Pear? How to identify the difference between the two? Yang Jiaju, a drafter of the Redwood National Standards and a professor at the Chinese Academy of Forestry, said that the current Redwood National Standards clarify that the fragrant branches include Dalbergia spp., And the scientific name of Huanghuali in the community is Jiangxiang Dalbergia.
It is reported that at present, the Beijing Wood Furniture Quality Supervision and Inspection Station can only detect "five categories and eight categories" for mahogany furniture. It is difficult to issue more detailed inspections such as origin. In the formal mahogany store, the material column of Huanghuali furniture is uniformly marked as fragrant wood, with few or only some manufacturers showing in small letters.
The national standard needs to be improved
It is understood that the current mahogany national standard (GB / T18107-2000) followed by the industry was promulgated and implemented in 2000. The standard stipulates that mahogany refers to the heartwood of Pterocarpus, Dalbergia, Diospyros, Clematis, and Helix. It also includes red sandalwood, rosewood, fragrant branches, black rosewood, red rosewood, ebony, and stripes Eight categories of ebony and wenge. But there is no systematic elaboration on the more detailed division and explanation.
In recent years, at the international auctions, China ’s Ming and Qing dynasties rosewood furniture repeatedly set auction records, and people ’s attention to this type of product has increased accordingly. Some consumers also use it as an investment channel while they love it, resulting in rosewood furniture. The price has risen again.
Wu Xinjian, President of Jinfei Redwood, said that as far as Huanghua pears are concerned, in the beginning of 2002, no matter whether they were Hainan Huanghua pears or Vietnam Huanghua pears, the average material price was around 20,000 yuan per ton. However, since the second half of 2002, some people began to speculate on Hainan Huanghua pear, and its price rose from 20,000 yuan / ton to 8 million yuan / ton, or even higher. But the real transaction price did not exceed 4 million yuan / ton.
Industry insiders said that the rapid development of the mahogany industry has made the relevant standards formulated 10 years ago slightly outdated, and some problems encountered in the development cannot be effectively resolved.
Purchase requires complete knowledge
For consumers who really like mahogany furniture, buying this product is not just about its use value, they are more concerned about the cultural value behind it. Therefore, consumers should enrich their knowledge of mahogany furniture, such as how to choose materials, how to judge the symmetry of the structure, how to check the fine workmanship, how to pay attention to the details of carving, etc., and strive to become more professional and rational when buying furniture.
Wu Xinjian said that consumers who love and buy mahogany furniture are more of a complex. While they love traditional Chinese culture, they should also have a better understanding of the materials of mahogany furniture to avoid cheating. "China Quality News"
