Mahogany physical characteristics


Mahogany is widely distributed in tropical forest areas, and the wood itself has an odor. In the Americas and Europe, mahogany is considered as an imported high-grade raw material for furniture and cabinet manufacturing. As a good material, mahogany has very good physical properties. It is these qualities that make it acceptable to the craftsmen of all countries even if it flows through several continents. It is one of the most expensive woods in the world. It is used for furniture, musical instruments, etc., but it cannot be used for building because of its soft wood.


1. Hard wood and easy to process.
The hardness of a tree is an important indicator of whether a piece of wood is of sufficient quality. Chinese mahogany furniture is made of hardwood, and some are treasures in hardwood, such as Hainan huanghuali, Indian lobular rosewood. The mahogany has a hard texture and fine texture. The wood has excellent stability, is easy to polish, and is not easily deformed. The furniture is durable and durable. It is such physical advantages that make the mahogany's post-processing easy. European and American craftsmen can't help but praise it as "aristocrat in high-grade furniture materials." In their eyes, mahogany is the imported high-grade raw material for furniture and cabinet manufacturing. The mahogany bookcases that we saw at the auction house today, such as the British royal mahogany furniture, and Queen George III of Queen George III, benefited from the stability of the mahogany itself.


2, the pattern and European sculpture complement each other.
The origin of the mahogany name is because it has the aristocratic peach petals in its romance. The different mahogany colors are different, ranging from golden yellow to deep reddish brown. Moreover, the color of rare wood such as huanghuali and red sandalwood grows deeper and darker, and the color of mahogany will develop from the initial reddish brown to the later dark red brown brown. In addition, the mahogany has a clear pattern and transforms into a spiral pattern pattern as the branches branch. This meticulously varied wood grain is matched with European-style engraving, and there is a kind of European royal court after the fine product.


Unusual colors and patterns were very popular when they first entered the British court. In the 18th century, Sir Walter Raleig made a mahogany table for Queen Elizabeth I. Since then, the reputation of mahogany has increased day by day, in the life of nobles. It has been sought after as never before. To this day, the craftsmen are still willing to use the open paint coating method to show the pattern of the mahogany.


3, strong corrosion resistance, conducive to preservation.
Hardwoods are generally very resistant to corrosion, and mahogany is no exception. Due to the tight texture and high density of the wood, the mahogany is highly resistant to corrosion. In addition, its unique fragrance has anti-termite characteristics, and mahogany has a long preservation time. This has also become an important selection criterion for top furniture. Mahogany has been with the royal furniture for hundreds of years, and today we still sigh in the museum that the mahogany has not been rotted for a long time.
