What are the fake methods of mahogany furniture?

Mahogany furniture has inherited the 5,000-year history of the Chinese nation, condensed the wisdom of China for thousands of years, created brilliance and glory, and carried profound history and national culture. Mahogany furniture, full of long history and culture, is a symbol of identity. Its beautiful shape, high-quality craftsmanship and rare materials are all laid for the classical charm. In order to make perfect, gorgeous and valuable works of art, it is the highest sublimation of mahogany furniture! "Beautiful materials and art, fine form and deep rhyme" is the ultimate embodiment of mahogany furniture.

Recently, following the soaring price of raw materials of mahogany, all kinds of mainstream mahogany have once again become the darling of the mahogany market and are welcomed by consumers. Some black-hearted businesses take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters and make money crazily. Today, Bian Xiao will introduce some fake methods of mahogany furniture that I have seen.

1, mahogany material fraud

The high price of mahogany furniture is largely determined by the precious material. For example: rosewood, Huang Huali, rosewood and other well-known mahogany raw materials, due to the rising price of raw materials in recent years, some mahogany merchants play a marginal role in raw materials in order to reduce production costs.

The most common means of counterfeiting is to use materials with similar colors and patterns as real mahogany. In order to reduce the risk, some merchants will not use fake materials completely, but mix fake materials with real materials, which makes people "difficult to distinguish between true and false".

Take rosewood as an example. Real rosewood is very rare on the market now. "C? te d 'Ivoire" in C? te d 'Ivoire is close to rosewood in color and pattern, so it is mixed with rosewood by some merchants to make extremely expensive rosewood furniture.

Another example: rosewood has become the "new favorite" of the mahogany market in recent years, and the doping phenomenon is also very serious. Floral branches in Southeast Asia, Dalbergia microphylla in Panama and Mexico are close to rosewood in material density, texture and oiliness, and the real rosewood raw materials are mixed again.

2, mortise and tenon structure to cut corners

When making tenon-mortise structure, make false tenon; The tenon and groove do not correspond, and the size is not appropriate. When tenon and mortise are connected, use nails or environmentally friendly glue. Mahogany furniture connected with nails will have a serious service life because nails are easy to corrode.

3. Mix and match wood and materials with white skin in the hidden place of mahogany furniture.

As far as mahogany furniture is concerned, some merchants use mahogany materials in the conspicuous position of furniture and mix wood in other hidden places. Some unscrupulous merchants use logs with two floors up and down, with a layer sandwiched between them, and fill them with cheap materials or even sand cement to increase their weight.

Some unscrupulous merchants use mahogany materials containing a lot of white skin to make furniture, and then paint or paint the white skin furniture to make color and texture, which is difficult to distinguish from the color and texture of heartwood, so it is called "mahogany furniture". This kind of white leather furniture is soft and unstable, and it is easy to be corroded by insects. What can't stand the test of time is the most "fake". White leather is not durable, and the price is ten times worse than heartwood.

4. In terms of materials, the connection is repaired and inferior mahogany is used.

In some manufacturers, the wood purchased outside is rotten and the wood is eaten by insects. When it is made, it is repaired with sawdust. When these parts are connected together, glue them together. Some boards are connected into a whole board. This practice will affect the service life of furniture.

5, "rubber mill" furniture is difficult to distinguish.

Rubber factory. It's the latest fake method, and it's very concealed!

Rubber floor furniture is not waxed or painted, which is similar to "white stubble" furniture. Nowadays, in order to test the authenticity of materials, many consumers often ask merchants not to treat the furniture surface, and then wax or paint it after inspection. However, with the method of rubber floor, "white stubble" furniture is not safe.

The whole fake process of grinding glue is very simple: it is to apply glue when grinding, then polish it hard and manipulate it repeatedly for two or three times to let the glue penetrate into the furniture. In order to cover the white skin or block, it will be colored before grinding.

The purpose of counterfeiting with rubber mill is to cover up the purpose of using white leather, patchwork and improper drying. The furniture treated by rubber grinding can almost be confused with the real one in appearance, and some mahogany furniture even has the luster of "patina".
