For a while, the price of raw materials for mahogany furniture rose, for a while, the mahogany furniture "crashed hundreds of times", and for a while there was serious fraud in the quality of mahogany furniture. In recent days, news about mahogany furniture has been overwhelming, making it difficult to tell the truth.
During the China-ASEAN Expo held in Nanning in October last year, there was news that the mahogany market was shocking: a set of mahogany furniture with a price of 80 million yuan that year plummeted to a set of 600,000 yuan three years later, and the mahogany furniture plummeted more than hundred times.
The price of mahogany furniture has been rising, how can there be such a severe plunge? Although the news that shocked the industry was later confirmed to be fake news, it has a wide range of influences, and many consumers believe that the price of mahogany furniture has fallen.
In fact, many of the so-called price declines are caused by the fact that some merchants used low-cost mahogany, such as chicken wing wood, to pretend to be high-price mahogany, such as Huanghuali, etc., and the natural price returned after being recognized by the market. The mahogany furniture made of chicken wing wood is not expensive at all. For example, the three-piece Nanguan hat chair sold by regular merchants uses chicken wing wood as a raw material. The weight is about 30 kg and the price is about 7,000 yuan.
Some high-end mahogany materials, such as Hainan Huanghuali and Red Leaf Sandalwood, have not fallen in price but have been rising. For example, Huanghuali furniture has repeatedly created high prices in the autumn auction last year, and tens of millions of lots have continuously emerged; even The cheaper red rosewood in mahogany materials also rose from the original 30,000-40,000 yuan / ton to 60,000 yuan / ton.
The plunge is false and the rise is true
Since the current domestic collection market is extremely hot, the price of mahogany furniture has soared. Since last year, the cost of raw materials for various types of mahogany furniture has doubled over the past two years. The current price of red sandalwood is more than 300,000 yuan / ton, and that of Huanghuali is more than 600,000 yuan / ton. Even the cheaper red rosewood in the mahogany material has risen from the original 30,000-40,000 yuan / ton to 60,000 yuan / ton, and the raw material cost price has risen by about 50%.
The rise in raw materials has naturally pushed up the price of mahogany furniture. For example, Liantianhong, a leading mahogany furniture company in Fujian, has raised the prices of various types of mahogany furniture since 2011. Lian Tianhong sells mahogany furniture in a "non-compromising, price-based" way. According to Lian Tianhong's sales staff, from January 1 this year, Huanghuali and Xiaoye red sandalwood furniture will increase the price by 300 yuan per kilogram. The prices were raised to 3899 yuan and 1999 yuan per kilogram respectively; Laos rosewood furniture increased 40 yuan to 459 yuan per kilogram; chicken wing furniture increased 20 yuan to 219 yuan per kilogram; Laos rosewood and Burmese rosewood increased 30 yuan To 199 yuan per kilogram.
At present, the original price of mahogany furniture is still rising further. Liantianhong has determined to increase the price again from February 1. Laos red rosewood, wenge, Lao rosewood and Burmese rosewood have been raised on the basis of the price increase in January. The price increases are 40 yuan, 20 yuan, and 30 yuan per kilogram, respectively, and the prices of Huanghua pear and red sandalwood are to be determined.
In addition, due to the hot orders, Liantianhong's small leaf red sandalwood and Vietnam Huanghuali furniture custom-made cycle takes more than 4 months. The larger the material, the more expensive the material. For example, the unit price of red sandalwood used for items with a length of 170-195 cm needs to be increased by 30%, and the unit price of more than 195 cm needs to be increased by 50%; the unit price of materials used for Huanghua pear exceeding 150 cm needs to be increased by 100% It is difficult to order materials over 170 cm.
Mahogany furniture auctions repeatedly set high prices
In a classic furniture auction in Ming and Qing Dynasties held in Nanjing on January 9, a pair of large square cabinets with carved sculpted dragon patterns and shou characters in the Ming Dynasty Huanghuali attracted the attention of many collectors, and finally sold for 8.5 million yuan.
In the China Guardian Autumn Auction last year, the "Simple and Timeless-Ming Style Huanghuali Furniture Boutique Special Event" was launched, with a total of 60 lots, a turnover rate of 100%, and a total transaction price of 210 million yuan, of which many pieces of Huanghuali furniture were sold. Over ten million.
In the autumn auction of China Guardian, Huanghuali Furniture set the highest record in the auction. In the court autumn auction special, "A Pair of Huanghuali Dragon Pattern Four Cabinets in the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty" just set the highest record of the Huanghuali auction with a transaction price of 39.76 million yuan, and was the second day in the Huanghuali Furniture Special. The Minghuang Huali cluster moire horseshoe legs six-post canopy bed "was broken with a transaction record of 43.12 million yuan.
Mr. Qiao Hao, Project Manager of China Jiade Porcelain Crafts Department said: "This China Jiade Autumn Auction of Ming-style Huanghuali Auction is the largest auction of Ming-style Huanghuali furniture in China. More than one-third of the auctions have After the description, the quality is considerable. "
Redwood furniture looks at flowers in the fog
At present, the biggest problem of mahogany furniture is its unequal price and material quality. Ordinary consumers cannot easily distinguish the material of mahogany furniture, such as the difference between Huanghuali and ordinary rosewood furniture; nor can they see what quality problems exist in mahogany furniture.
On the one hand, some merchants sell mahogany furniture of unreasonably high quality and use cheap mahogany as the expensive mahogany; on the other hand, some merchants produce mahogany furniture with quality problems. For example, some manufacturers in Xianyou, Fujian Province, which was exposed some time ago, added white leather materials to mahogany furniture, which caused an uproar, and the exposed mahogany furniture companies closed down for rectification. The white skin material, also known as the bark, is prone to cause worms and cannot be preserved permanently.
Waxing and lacquering are two different processes for making mahogany furniture. Liantianhong furniture, which has been "priced by the pound", exploded out the hidden rules in the lacquering process in the mahogany furniture industry: after painting, it is difficult to distinguish whether the furniture is mixed Fake, only after the sandpaper is polished, the white skin mixed in can be fully revealed.
Tips
What is mahogany?
Mahogany does not refer to all colors of red wood in general, but it is a commonly used term for the domestic mahogany furniture materials. The national standard of "Redwood" stipulates that only 5 categories and 8 categories of goods can be called mahogany.
According to Yang Jiaju, the first drafter of the "Redwood" national standard and an associate researcher at the Institute of Wood Industry, Chinese Academy of Forestry, mahogany furniture began in the Ming Dynasty, and Zheng He brought back mahogany to the west. Today, more than 98% of China's rosewood is still dependent on imports.
The so-called 5 genera and 8 genera are named after the genera of dendrology, namely, Pterocarpus, Dalbergia, Diospyros, Clematis and Tieligen. Category 8 is named after the trade name of wood, namely red sandalwood, rosewood, fragrant branches, black rosewood, red rosewood, ebony, striped ebony and chicken wings. Mahogany refers to the heartwood of these 5 genera and 8 types of wood. Heartwood refers to the center of the tree and the part without living cells.
Rosewood-purple to purple black; rosewood-reddish brown to purple, often with black stripes; fragrant branches-spicy aroma, rich reddish brown; black rosewood-black chestnut brown, with black stripes; red rosewood Wood-reddish brown to purple red; ebony-blackish black stripes or chestnut brown, with purple strips in between; chicken winged wood-dark brown or chestnut brown, with chicken wings stripes on the string surface.
What kind of mahogany has collection value?
More and more people are interested in collecting mahogany furniture. At present, the price of mahogany is constantly rising, the market is very active, and the volume of transactions is enlarged. So which categories of mahogany furniture are more valuable in collection?
Among the mahogany, the rarest is Hainan Huanghua pear, so its collection value is the highest. In addition, small leaf red sandalwood, Vietnam Huanghua pear, red rosewood also received great attention, with greater room for appreciation. In particular, the performance of red sandalwood and red rosewood has been outstanding recently. The collection value of wenge and ebony is relatively weak.
When buying mahogany furniture, you should not only choose a variety with high raw material value, but also pay attention to its artistic value. You need to have a good carver and appearance, and pay attention to whether the selected furniture is all mahogany.
Ordinary consumers should be cautious when buying mahogany furniture. Do not enter the market with a "speculation" mentality. If you do not have a deep research on mahogany and do not have an appropriate collection "circle", the mahogany furniture invested by ordinary consumers is often easy to hit in your own hands .
