Right now, a mahogany, commonly known as African huanghuali and officially known as Hedgehog Rosewood, has become a shining star in the classical furniture market. At the same time, there are also a few shoddy, and the fake furniture of African huanghuali has begun to flood the market.
“At present, the sales of classical furniture of African huanghuali are relatively large.†Wu Baimao, manager of Xinjiang Classical Furniture City Jiangmen Store, said that the wood grain expression of African huanghuali is as good as that of Vietnamese huanghuali, which is rich and varied, with rich texture. And fine carving is favored by furniture lovers, but consumers must learn to identify before buying.
There are two main types of African huanghua pears on the market.
Wu Baimao said that there are more than 20 kinds of African huanghuali wood. The properties of these 20 kinds of wood are close to that of rosewood, but they cannot fully meet the international standards for rosewood in terms of density, so it is called "African yellow." Pear." African huanghuali belongs to the species of turf and avocado, and its important feature is that the diameter of the tube hole is larger, the density is smaller, and the wood is lighter, and it floats when it enters the water. The African huanghua pears currently on the market mainly include African red sandalwood and Angora red sandalwood.
The main characteristics of African red sandalwood are: 15-30 meters high and 60-100 cm in diameter, produced in Nigeria, Congo, Ghana, Gabon, Angola and other places. The wood heart material is orange red, brick red or purple red, often with dark stripes, visible scratches, wood shavings or wood chips after immersion in water, the liquid is fluorescent, rich aroma. The African rosewood has a fine structure and staggered texture. The wood has a small shrinkage and medium weight, and the basic density is 0.55-0.67 g/cm3.
The main characteristics of Angola rosewood are: wood sapwood is light gray or yellow, width 3-5 cm, heartwood color from brown to purple brown, sometimes with dark stripes, distinct from sapwood. Angola red sandalwood growth wheel is clearer, the wood has a lustrous and weak aroma. The wood has a small shrinkage and a medium weight, and the air dry density is about 0.64 g/cm 3 .
Ask more experts in classical furniture
African huanghuali and huanghuali, the price difference is very far. The reporter also saw in the store that the African huanghuali furniture sold in the market is more popular than the huanghuali that is hundreds of thousands of yuan. “African huanghuali and Vietnamese huanghuali are similar in appearance. Its pattern is very good, and it is hard and not easy to crack. Plus it is moderately priced, only 1% of the same weight of Vietnamese huanghuali. This is the African huanghua pear. The reason is that it is not very cost-effective to buy a set of mahogany furniture at the price of a set of ordinary solid wood furniture.†A salesperson of Xinhui Classical Furniture City Jiangmen Store said.
It is precisely because of the above-mentioned characteristics of African huanghuali that some classical furniture merchants use this fish to mix beads, deliberately write the words "huanghuali" on the furniture label, and then write the word "African" to a small point, not even write, there are Does not indicate the nature of the tree species, trying to sell at a high price.
So, how can I buy the authenticity of African huanghuali? Wu Baimao reminds consumers to use the principle of “careful shotâ€, first of all, you can try the weight of furniture, compared with the same size of huanghuali classical furniture, African huanghuali The furniture is lighter; secondly, consumers can distinguish by distinguishing the appearance: African huanghuali is light in color, lacks oiliness, and feels slightly rough compared with furniture of other materials, and the wood grain is not clear. In addition, the most cautious approach is to humbly ask experts with classical furniture to listen to their experiences and opinions.
