How to identify furniture materials, how to distinguish furniture materials from good and bad

Mahogany is like a beauty, and its form is very important. So what is the form?

Shape: refers to the overall shape of the furniture that we perceive visually, and keep a certain distance from the furniture to observe whether its shape design has the characteristics of Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, whether the structure is reasonable, whether the proportion and size of each component are coordinated, and whether the appearance lines are smooth.

Pattern appreciation: Close-up appreciation of craft wood grain.

After looking at the form, it is necessary to look at the carving of mahogany furniture, and to look at the carving, it is necessary to take a good look at the patterns on the mahogany furniture. So what does a pattern mean?

Patterns are the patterns of the components, flower lines, wood grains and all decorations in furniture. Look at the thickness and density of the composition of the flowers, the symmetry of the depth and size of the lines, whether the wood grain trend is clear, and whether the smooth and soft texture comes from the inside of the wood. You can feel layer by layer whether the component lines or decorative patterns are clean, delicate and vivid, dynamic and prominent, or sluggish and weak, rough and flawed.

A high-grade Ming and Qing Dynasty antique furniture pattern, visually feel that it is an artistic expression of coordination and contrast, and a dynamic beauty.

Skin touch: smooth and smooth feel.

After looking at the shapes and patterns, we should also feel the feel of mahogany furniture. The hand touch method is to touch the surface, bend, arc and round position of the furniture with your hands to feel the roundness and smoothness of the furniture.

1) Flat surface: Rub the wider plane back and forth with the palm of your hand to feel its smoothness and smoothness. Use our skin to feel whether the "skin" of mahogany furniture is smooth enough.

2) Bending: Walk with your hands to contact the bend of the interface of the furniture to feel whether the handover is smooth.

3) Arc: Move along the pattern with your fingers to feel whether the arc of the flower piece is smooth and smooth.

4) Round position: Rotate the cylinder of the furniture up and down with your hand to feel whether the cylinder is smooth and round.

Percussion Method: The structure of listening and arguing is tight.

After reading it, touching it, we still have to listen to its "sound". Tapping your fingers on the furniture panel can feel its thickness from the vibration; By tapping your fingers on the positions of the various components of the furniture, you can hear how tight the structure is; You can also use mobile furniture to make its landing part gently touch the ground, listen to the sound, and distinguish the tightness of the structure, and the sound is thick, which is good; If the sound is false, it is bad. Knock on it, listen to it, the good and the bad are all in it.

Olfactory taste: Distinguish between wood and lacquer.

Traditional Chinese medicine is all about looking, smelling, asking, and cutting. For mahogany furniture, we have finished reading, touching, and listening, but don't forget to smell it! Take a good sniff with our noses!

Wood has its own unique taste, different, even the same kind of wood, will be due to its growth rings and water content differences, their wood fragrance is different, if the use of wood with high water content to make furniture will emit a musty sour smell. The more fragrant the wood texture, the better, and from this aspect, you can identify the quality of wood drying and lacquer. If you use lacquer, not only will there be no odor, but it will also make the wood grain more vivid and clear.

1. Cabinet furniture.

The structure of the cabinet is loose, the tenon joint part is not firm, and there are broken tenons and broken materials; The top plate, the bottom plate and the side hill of wood-based panel furniture are connected with nails, and the process is extremely unreasonable.

2. Drawers. No tenon, no groove, no belt at the bottom of the drawer; The drawer structure is loose, the tenon structure is not glued, and the drawer and the plug are connected with nails.

3. The moisture content of wood is high, and the furniture uses decayed wood and wood that insects are still eroding.

4. The materials are seriously unreasonable, and particleboard slats and MDF are used.

strips to make wardrobes. of the door.

Load-bearing parts such as sides, columns, front scales, drawer scales, etc.

5. Dressing mirror.

No back plate, no beads, positioning with nails; The glass plate is made of nails as a pin, which is very easy to cause glass breakage and endanger personal safety.

6. The functional size does not meet the requirements specified in the standard. For example, the height of the hanging space of the large wardrobe cannot reach 1350mm, and the depth cannot reach 520mm.

7. Leather sofa.

The interior of the wood has a high moisture content, boards, bark, and uses split, decaying and insect-eaten wood.

8. The sofa frame adopts a nail structure, no tenon, no eye, and no glue. The structure is loose and unstable.

9. Sofa and soft mattress.

The interior uses used sacks that do not meet sanitary standards and moldy insect-infested brown felt and felt.

10. Tie the spring with a plastic rope.

and fabrics; The diameter of the reed wire and the number of reeds do not meet the standard provisions.

11. Rough appearance. The thin wood and veneer of wooden furniture are glued in a large area, and the paint color is serious; Upholstery and sofa wrapping cloth dental floss is not straight, and there are many jumpers; The product has no trademark, does not indicate the place of origin and enterprise name, and does not affix the quality grade mark.

1. When purchasing, mainly look at whether the surface of the plate has defects such as scratches, indentations, bubbling, degumming and peeling and glue marks;

2. Whether the wood grain pattern is natural and smooth, and there should be no artificial feeling;

3. For symmetrical furniture, it is necessary to pay more attention to the consistency and harmony of the color and texture of the board, so that people feel that the symmetrical plate is like coming from a piece of material;

4. The rationality and firmness of the connection point between each component of the furniture, if a piece of furniture is a combination of Shanshan type, the tightness of the hardware itself and the tightness of the furniture must be very ideal;

5. For furniture with overall structure, each connection point, including the connection point between horizontal and vertical, must be tightly sealed, without gaps or loosening;

6. Another example is surface treatment, where the open paint treatment, the wood grain, the brown eye of the wood must be presented, with a three-dimensional effect. Where the sealed paint treatment, the surface feels the best like the top coat of the piano, whether it is clear oil, mixed oil, matte, high gloss or flat gloss, the cleanliness of the paint surface, the smoothness of the bucket cover and the hardness must be high;

7. Looking at the veneer veneer, the surface of the veneer must be flat and not blistered; There must not be any traces of complementary color on the veneer; The texture of the veneer is dense, there is no gap between the splicing and the splicing, the pattern should be accurate, whether it is on a plane or in the corner, in addition to the use of color difference, the color difference of the veneer on a surface should be very small.

The way to identify solid wood furniture is to look at the wood grain and scars, as follows:

1. Look at the wood grain: For example, a cabinet door, the appearance is a pattern, so follow the position of the pattern change, look at the corresponding pattern on the back of the cabinet door, if the correspondence is very good, it proves that it is a pure solid wood cabinet door.

2. Look at the scar knot: generally solid wood furniture has a certain amount of scarring, some scars will extend to the back of the board, look at the location of one side of the scar and knot, and then find out whether there is a corresponding scar and knot on the other side, if it is symmetrical, it can be determined that it is solid wood furniture.
