Five kinds of rosewood wood covered 90% of the sales of the mahogany home industry

According to the current status of the mahogany furniture market, regardless of the various mahogany alternative materials, the following five kinds of the national standard mahogany in the roots of the roots of the mahogany, accounted for more than 90% of the sales, let's call it [Redwood Five Tigers].

First, Barry Dalbergia

Commonly known as flower rosewood, flowering branch, red rosewood, "Redwood" national standard Dalbergia is red rosewood,

In the timber market, the habit is referred to as "flower branch". In the mahogany furniture market, most mahogany manufacturers use "red rosewood" as the common name for finished furniture.

One of the seven traditional and precious (redwood) materials used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was introduced into the country as a substitute for Siamese rosewood during the late Qing Dynasty, also known as “New Redwood”.

The newly opened material has a sour scent. The wood color is generally lighter than the red rosewood (Sian rosewood), and there are tendons, but the tendons are generally thin, and there is no thick red rosewood.

Generally sinking in water, air dry density (12% moisture content): 1.07 ~ 1.09 g / cm3).

The main problem is that the caliber of the material is small, generally smaller than the red rosewood. The common common in the market is about 20 cm, so the finished furniture is generally more beautiful.

Barry Dalbergia furniture is the highest price in the “Five Tigers” (market goods), and currently has a large market share in medium and high-end mahogany, and is also the main product of a large domestic mahogany factory.

Second, A. sinensis

Commonly known as white rosewood, white branches, also commonly known as Burmese rosewood, "Redwood" national standard red rosewood.

The 7 traditional materials used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties were introduced into the country together with the Bari Dalbergia during the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. They were called "new mahogany" together with Bari Dalbergia.

In the timber market, it is often referred to as “white branches”.

The two concepts of "white branches" and "flower branches" have also evolved.

In the early days, the sour branches of Southeast Asia were called “flowers and sour branches”, referred to as “flower branches”, and the rest were called “white branches” (still in Southeast Asia).

Nowadays, in the domestic market, the barley Dalbergia, the red acid in the national standard of the redwood, is called “flower branch”, and the A. sinensis is called “white branch”.

White rosewood has fish scales, huanghuali does not

The base color of A. sinensis is generally lighter than that of Bari Dalbergia. The texture is obvious and inconspicuous. It is both beautiful and huanghuali, and it is also unremarkable.

It is also because of its large difference in texture, so many people see some white rosewood furniture with unclear texture, do not understand why it is like huanghuali.

The texture of the white rosewood is beautiful, and it is very close to the yellow pear. After making a small piece, it is difficult to distinguish if it is not experienced enough. In fact, Hainan's huanghuali market does have some small pieces of “huanghuali” made by “white rosewood”.

White rosewood often has fish scales, and huanghuali does not

Air dry density (12% moisture content): about 1.00 g/cm 3 . In the 2016 International Botanical Academic Update, Barry Dalbergia and A. sinensis have been confirmed as a tree species.

It was once considered by the mahogany industry to be the next dark horse. The price of logs is relatively large due to the texture and caliber. It is basically the same as the barley Dalbergia (the overall is slightly lower but not much different).

Third, large fruit rosewood

Commonly known as Burmese rosewood, one of the seven traditional materials used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Formerly known as turf, it was introduced to the country as a substitute for huanghuali during the late Qing Dynasty.

In the 2000 "Redwood" national standard, commonly known as Burmese rosewood, there are large fruit rosewood, bird foot red sandalwood, more Cambodian red sandalwood.

In the international academic update, all three are confirmed to be the same kind of different names of Daguo red sandalwood. In the new national standard of "Redwood" to be implemented on July 1, 2018, it will be unified into Daguo red sandalwood.

Air dry density (12% moisture content): 0.80 g / cm 3 ~ 1.01 g / cm 3 .

As a traditional material, Daguo red sandalwood is ideal in terms of texture, odor, density and stability, and the color of the material is positive and flawless.

At present, Daguo rosewood furniture has the largest sales volume in the mid-range mahogany market, and it is the undisputed “mainstay” and one of the potential stocks of the mahogany collection.

Four broadleaf Dalbergia

Commonly known as Indonesian black rosewood, "Redwood" national standard black rosewood.

In 1997, when collecting wood samples for the development of the "Redwood" national standard, Mr. Yang Jiaxuan saw a batch of broad-leaved Dalbergia imported from the late 1950s at the Shanghai Art Carving Factory. The broad-leaved Dalbergia was also included in the national standard of redwood.

In fact, since the batch was imported in the 1950s, it was not until 2007 that the broadleaf rosewood began to import again and caused manufacturers to try to pay attention.

In recent years, the broad-leaved Dalbergia has been widely welcomed by the rosewood consumer market because of its national standard redwood root and seedling red and high cost performance.

It is mainly produced in India, Indonesia and other places, and is currently mainly imported from Indonesia.

As a tree species of black rosewood, the heartwood of broad-leaved Dalbergia is from light brown, dark brown to purple brown, and the air dry density (12% moisture content): 0.75~1.04 g/cm3, most of which is 0.82~0.86 g/cm3.

The price of the finished furniture of broad-leaved Dalbergia is basically the same as that of Daguo Red Sandalwood. In recent years, the attention and sales volume in the mahogany furniture market are very impressive, and it has the same trend as the big fruit rosewood. It is called the new favorite of the mahogany market. ".

Five, Hedgehog rosewood

Commonly known as African rosewood, it is the king of sales in the middle and low-end mahogany market!

Hedgehog rosewood is a rosewood rosewood, mainly produced in western Africa. The domestic mahogany market and appraisal institutions have a common understanding:

African rosewood from Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Gambia, and Sierra Leone is the authentic “Hedgehog rosewood”, while the scent of Nigeria, Togo, Benin and Ghana is unpleasant.

In fact, An's rosewood is a kind of wood species that grows in South Africa and has no obvious difference between the heart and the sapwood. Whether it is the origin or the characteristics of the tree species, it is far from the so-called "An's rosewood" in China.

The results of this erroneous appraisal were proposed and corrected at the end of 2015. It has been confirmed that all the “Anshui red sandalwood” produced in Nigeria, Ghana, Togo, Benin and other countries are all “Hedgehog rosewood”, and all domestic appraisal organizations will no longer issue The appraisal report of "Anshi Red Sandalwood" is also required to provide import and export licenses for endangered species of Hedgehog rosewood.

Air dry density: about 0.85 g / cm3, wins at an affordable price, texture with tension, and is the tree species in the national standard mahogany, is still the absolute main force of the mass-class mahogany furniture market!
