The classical furniture market is greasy and the bottom of the mahogany furniture is seriously

A popular saying in the furniture industry: classical furniture is timeless fashion. The crowds who like mahogany furniture are constantly expanding, and the age of buyers is also younger. It is not only a hobby to go to Amoy "old furniture", but also seems to be a trend and an investment. However, consumers who first went to the mahogany furniture market will inevitably have the feeling of seeing flowers in the fog, because consumers do not have the relevant knowledge, and many merchants are good at playing tricks and hands-on, making this market a mixed bag. Consumers can't help but ask: How deep is the road to the mahogany furniture market? How many "traps" and "scams" do you have? How to buy mahogany furniture that can preserve and increase value.

Xiaobian met some lovers of mahogany furniture. They bought a set of genuine mahogany furniture and carried a copy of the "Redwood National Standard" (hereinafter referred to as "the national standard"), which ran through the classical furniture market in Shanghai, and even many times. Visit some of the manufacturers' production bases in the suburbs and talk to Superman in the hardwood furniture industry many times. Even such a persistent consumer is inevitably deceived. This week, Superman went to some mahogany furniture market to visit, and interviewed several Superman in the mahogany furniture industry to understand some improper practices of mahogany furniture manufacturers and sales staff.

The classical furniture market is getting tired

Many sales people do not understand the "national standard"

Xiaobian found that when visiting several classical furniture markets, many salesmen would not express consumers according to the material name of the "GB" when introducing mahogany furniture. For example, the material of furniture is only known as "rosewood" or "chicken wing wood". As everyone knows, there are many wood species similar or similar to these redwoods, and there is a clear gap in price. Ms. Wang, who is passionate about classical furniture, has encountered such sales people. Ms. Wang said that she had seen a set of Taishi chairs, but when talking with the sales staff, she found that the sales staff did not understand the "national standard." "We don't know what the "national standard" is, and we don't know what big mahogany, small mahogany, what wood on the label, what kind of wood we sell." The sales lady said with confidence. When Ms. Wang heard this, she felt that the business was not "right" and naturally did not dare to buy their furniture.

Hardwood furniture sellers love to take "Huanghua Pear" to say things

“What kind of wood is this article made?” Xiaobian asked at a booth selling mahogany furniture. The salesperson immediately replied: "It's Huanghuali." Then he added: "But, when signing the contract, I have to write 'Xiangzhimu' because, in the "National Standard", the yellow pearwood is placed in the fragrant wood. Name is down."

On the surface, the sales staff was very frank and took the "national standard" as an argument. In fact, merchants circumvent some of the responsibilities and risks. After all, huanghuali is extremely precious and is on the verge of extinction. The merchants naturally cannot guarantee the ticket for their so-called "Huanghua Pear" material. However, in order to make a profit, the sellers of hardwood furniture usually use "Huanghua Pear" to make a fuss.

The insider told Superman about a complaint about a mahogany furniture. An old lady bought a set of huanghuali circle chair for fifty or six thousand yuan. Later, after identification, the material of the circle chair was "Asian pear", and its value was less than 10,000 yuan. The old lady then went to the sales company to go to court, only because the material name marked on the contract was "rosewood", and the old lady never won.

At present, there are many kinds of "Huanghua Pear" products on the market, and the prices are very different, so that consumers can see the flowers in the fog. In fact, only "Hainan fragrant Dalbergia" can be called huanghuali, and only Hainan's unique climate and environment are suitable for the growth of huanghuali. Consumers can go to the market and ask about the origin of similar products. See if they can get a contract to determine that the product is made from Hainan's fragrant Dalbergia or Hainan fragrant wood (Huanghua Pear). In this way, the authenticity is self-identifying.

Redwood furniture counterfeit fake

An insider told the author that some unscrupulous traders poured alcohol on the finished furniture in order to imitate the furniture made of black Dalbergia. When it is burned to a certain temperature, it will be extinguished immediately, and it will also be burnt with potassium permanganate. The effect of the imitation can be completely false.

My friend is an overseas Chinese. Because I like Chinese classical hardwood furniture, I bought a set of rosewood furniture in a redwood market in Shanghai. Later, when I wiped the table with warm water, I found that many colors fell, and I knew the so-called "red sandalwood". "The furniture is dyed with ordinary redwood. The superman said that the price of ordinary rosewood is about 10,000 yuan per ton, while the price of lobular rosewood is about 150,000 yuan per ton.

There is also a shoddy practice in the hardwood furniture market. It is made of imported mahogany furniture made from other tree species belonging to the same family of redwood legumes. The prices of the raw materials of the two are five times different. Some merchants quoted the price according to the standard of imported mahogany furniture, and then told consumers that they could make a 50% discount or more. In fact, the merchants still earned, so consumers should not buy cheap goods and regret it.

Consumers should carefully read the contract when purchasing mahogany furniture

When buying mahogany furniture, you should shop around, learn more about the relevant knowledge, listen to the merchant's promise, read the contract carefully, and see if these commitments are reflected in the contract, to the greatest extent avoid some of the problems caused by buying fakes. Trouble, not only protects its own interests from being infringed, but also makes unscrupulous merchants take advantage of it. I believe that through the efforts of consumers, purifying the market will not be just an empty talk.
