In the big environment, the production and sales of Siamese rosewood furniture are booming, and the finished furniture has raised prices several times. At the same time -
The fluctuation of wood will inevitably affect the finished furniture. The material of Siamese rosewood is subject to policy restrictions and price increases, which has triggered a chain reaction. A large number of timber merchants urgently smashed goods, and furniture manufacturers have repeatedly raised prices, and consumers panic to buy. Recently, the reporter learned from a number of manufacturers and stores of mahogany furniture that since the new CITES Convention came into effect, the price of finished furniture has experienced many price increases since June, with an average increase of 30%-50%.
Finished furniture rose by 30%-50%
In the mahogany furniture industry, huanghuali, red sandalwood and red rosewood have always been called “troikaâ€. The price trend of various woods is based on their heads, and their price trend has been regarded by the industry as a “barometer†reflecting the hot and cold market. ,"thermometer". In recent years, due to the depletion and high prices of huanghuali and red sandalwood resources, Siamese rosewood has gradually become the mainstream of high-end rosewood consumption, and its market changes have a more global impact on the entire market and industry. In the field of furniture manufacturing and sales, we can also see the "position" of Siamese rosewood.
Judging from the information that reporters have learned in recent days, the prices of Siamese rosewood finished furniture have fluctuated greatly over the past few months, but the increase has basically remained between 30% and 50%, and some have exceeded 80%. There are also several factors.
Mr. Xu, the head of a brand-name mahogany store in Jizhou Weizhou, Guangzhou, said that for those who do not have materials or factories, the price will rise even more. They will be most affected by the fluctuation of raw material prices. Secondly, according to the current situation, It is foreseeable that Siamese rosewood will become the mainstream of “high-end mahoganyâ€, and merchants with stocks will no longer produce finished furniture in large quantities, because if you count the cost of wood and production, it is not cost-effective to look at the current price of finished products, or even It is better to sell raw materials directly. “After all, the finished product is mentioned too high, and consumers may not be able to accept it.â€
Chen Bihua, the person in charge of the same hair mahogany, also agreed. He said that there are very few large quantities of Siamese rosewood raw materials on the market. If the price of raw materials continues to change, the merchants will wait and see, and the end consumers also need an adaptation process. .
The store said that it will adjust the price according to the raw materials.
At present, the industry generally reflects the booming production and sales of wood and furniture, but the price increase of furniture is relatively lagging behind. Yao Jiancai, the head of the Cui Yaxuan Art Museum, explained that the raw materials are reflected in the first step, and there is a process in the market. Therefore, there is a process, and the increase is not as large as the raw materials. However, in the future, even if the price of wood is stable, it is difficult. Guarantee that furniture will no longer increase in price. He also revealed that furniture sales in the past few months were good.
The reporter visited the store and found that the sales of the merchants were different. Some even said that the price of raw materials continued to rise and the store would adjust the price immediately. Jisheng Weibang, a mahogany merchant, Mr. Xu said that six months ago, a set of red rosewood "Ming-style Peony sofa set of ten" was priced at 2.67 million yuan, and now there is no more than 400,000 yuan he will not sell, plus There is still some time away from the Spring Festival, and it is not possible to rule out the possibility that furniture will continue to rise.
However, in this round of price hikes, some merchants have reminded that sensitive businesses have already sniffed business opportunities, and acquired large quantities of furniture before the overall price increase, and even merchants shoddy. The oriental classic Chen Fei also said that some people used the dimpled Dalbergia as a red rosewood, which made some people who did not know much about wood be deceived.
“Consumers must take the 'eyes of the eye' when buying, look at the material and see the craftâ€, the merchant Mr. Xu reminds, for example, whether it is a board or a multi-plate splicing, the furniture made by the two will have a larger price. difference.
Manufacturers cautiously place orders for Siamese rosewood furniture
Mr. Wang, who has been engaged in the production of mahogany for many years, told the collection weekly reporter that the furniture industry is a relatively professional field. For those who want to focus on the collection and investment of mahogany furniture, first of all, they need to have professional knowledge, including distinguishing raw materials, familiar with the process, etc. . In addition, if there is not enough funds and there is not enough raw material reserves, it is difficult to maintain the furniture manufacturing of Siamese rosewood for a long time.
“Many manufacturers have adopted a cautious order attitude for Dahong rosewood furniture.†Chen Bihua, head of Tongfa Redwood, stressed that as a brand enterprise, reputation is very important. Now high-end mahogany is also popular, but the fluctuation of raw materials makes the company very passive. For example, after the buyer pays the deposit, the raw materials rise, and those who do not have the deposits have a great risk. If the manufacturer has a bad reputation, there may be a shoddy phenomenon. Therefore, he reminded consumers that they must go to a reputable brand store to buy and customize furniture.
Mr. Wang also said that some merchants have already transformed into timber merchants, and once they have high profits, the second is that raw materials are easier to handle.

The price difference between Siamese rosewood and dimpled Dalbergia is twice. How do you distinguish between the two?
The red rosewood has a smooth texture, and the black gluten is wide and the Dalbergia sinensis is a red rosewood. People have known it since the Ming Dynasty, and in modern times, it is also used as a substitute for rosewood furniture. People also call it Laos red rosewood, red rosewood, because Southeast Asia, Laos is its main producing area, hence the name.
Dwarf Dalbergia is a red rosewood, the color is yellower than Dalbergia sinensis. It is not as good as Laos red rosewood in price, and because the color is too yellow, resulting in insufficient color and texture. It is mainly produced in the Americas. People know it later, and it is relatively late to enter the Chinese market, and the history of making furniture is relatively short.
In the eyes of many people, the dimpled Dalbergia as a piece of wood or even the finished furniture and the Laohong rosewood (Sian rosewood) are quite difficult to distinguish. Even some in-house experts are basically indistinguishable, but their price difference is about twice.
As for the difference between Sian rosewood and dimple Dalbergia, the reporter specially consulted some industry veterans. According to them, in the actual identification, the discrimination between the two in terms of weight and oil is actually not high. However, in terms of material color, newly opened wood is still relatively easy to distinguish. In general, the newly-opened heartwood of dimpled Dalbergia is orange-red or orange-yellow, while the red-spotted Dalbergia is reddish-black, and the dimpled Dalbergia is oxidized after being left for a while, and the color will become deeper and close to the Dalbergia. In terms of odor, the dimple Dalbergia is richer and has a spicy taste. The sour taste of Sian rosewood is lighter, but the taste is very positive. Texture features are less likely to be masked by time than material colors and odors. In contrast, the pattern of dimpled Dalbergia is large and exaggerated, and the black ribs are fine and numerous; the texture of S. chinensis is relatively smooth, and the black ribs are wide and small. In a relatively large area, the difference is obvious. . In addition, the dimples are mostly hollow, and the hollows tend to have long roots, which is more difficult to retrieve.
