Mahogany furniture has always been synonymous with expensive, so many friends feel that it is very face-saving to use mahogany furniture. Mahogany furniture on the market is much more expensive than ordinary furniture, so many friends want to shop around, and may really be able to find cheap mahogany furniture. But how much do you know about the inside story of the mahogany industry? When you find cheap mahogany furniture, you may encounter the following three situations.
First, the mahogany wood is shoddy
Some black-hearted manufacturers will take advantage of everyone's unfamiliarity with the name of mahogany to make a fuss. Mahogany timber has a scientific name as well as a common name. They may mislead consumers by referring to the slightly concave sandalwood as a big red sour branch and the rosewood as a Hainan yellow pear. Consumers need to have a deep understanding of mahogany. The above is just a confusing concept, but some friends simply refer to the deer as a horse, for example, falsely calling Lu's black sandalwood sandalwood or red sandalwood. This is an act of stealing concepts.
Second, the production process of mahogany furniture is not sophisticated enough
A small number of unscrupulous enterprises will use some small "tricks" to achieve the effect of cost savings, and the following editor will summarize it for you.
1. Black-hearted mahogany manufacturers will cut corners and use good wood in obvious parts, but use other wood or white bark in hidden places. This is a good way to control costs, but it is a deceptive act for consumers.
2. Some mahogany manufacturers do not even use mortise and tenon structures, and directly use iron nails and adhesives. Everyone knows that the secret of mahogany furniture that can be passed down for a hundred years is the mortise and tenon structure. This really goes against the original intention of the mahogany carpenter.
3. In addition to mahogany wood, inferior products can also be used for other materials. For example, we know that mahogany furniture drawers or cabinet doors need to use beeswax, and a few companies will use floor wax instead, which brings a choking smell to mahogany furniture.
4. Whether the mahogany furniture is painted or dyed, it needs to be painted on both sides and sides. In order to save time, effort and cost, a small number of enterprises simply paint on one side, which will cause deformation of wood.
The price is a penny, the yield of mahogany is low, the mahogany raw materials are expensive, the process is complex, the practicability is strong, and the use time is long, which are the reasons for the high price of mahogany furniture. You can shop around, but the price is too outrageous, so you need to think twice.
