Have you ever soaked it in red sour branches and pretended to be red sandalwood?

Yes, and a lot. Some old sour branches can be pretended to be sea yellow, which is indeed difficult to distinguish. 150 yuan, the following small leaf sandalwood is still possible to buy, the sour branch is definitely not worth this**, the large leaf sandalwood should be quite similar to this ** and a little higher.

I'll teach you a way to identify whether your bracelet is a sour branch (only can distinguish whether it is a sour branch), after soaking the bracelet in water, look at the lines, whether there is that kind of black hard line, the border is neat, if there is, it is basically a sour branch, wipe it with a napkin with a better texture, look at the color on the tissue, if it is similar to the positive purple of potassium permanganate, it can basically be concluded that it is a sour branch, and then combine the taste, in fact, the small leaf sandalwood has a faint fragrance, not strong, and it may not smell deliberately, If you smell it easily, it's not right, it may have been soaked in spices, and the taste of the red sour branch is sour and unscented when it is sheared, and it is even more difficult to smell the fragrance after the finished product. This comprehensive method is only to judge whether your bracelet is a sour branch under the condition of no **, and the big leaf sandalwood, ebony, etc. are different.

The characteristics you are talking about should be red sandalwood, and the fading is the real red sandalwood. Soon the oxidation and blackening will be even more so.

The small-leaved red sandalwood does fade. The red acid branches do not need to be soaked, the color is close, but the texture is far apart, and most of them are pretended to be large-leaved red sandalwood.

1. The texture is different.

The red sandalwood material is delicate, the texture is finer and denser, and the texture will be finer and denser. The peak pattern of the sour branch mountain is obvious, and the texture is relatively wide and heavy.

2. The color is different.

Pterosandalwood contains pterosandrin, which will oxidize when it comes into contact with ultraviolet rays in the air, and is orange or orange when it is first made, and is deep purple-red when it is fully lit, and the color will slowly darken after oxidation, and finally it will be close to black. The color of the sour branch will not change basically, only the color will be darker after oiling and waxing, and the color will be yellow and dry after being made, and there will be a greenish part in the middle.

3. The feel is different.

The same size of red sandalwood and sour branch bracelet, red sandalwood is the king of wood, the air-dry density is greater than 1, so it is heavier, pressing the hand, the sour branch is relatively lighter, and the feeling of pressing the hand is relatively poor.

4. The smell is different.

One of the most important aspects of identifying wood is smelling it. Rosewood has a faint sandalwood fragrance, which can be smelled by holding the bracelet close to your nose. The red sour branch has a sour fragrance, but the sour fragrance is more obvious when polishing the wood, and it is not easy to smell after being made into a bracelet, and it must not smell the sandalwood fragrance.

First of all, in terms of color, the small-leaved red sandalwood contains pterosandrin, which will oxidize when it comes into contact with the ultraviolet rays of the air, and the small-leaved red rosewood is orange or orange-red when it is first made, and the color will slowly darken after oxidation, and it will be close to black in the end, and it is still dark purple red when the light is sufficient. The color of the sour branch will not change basically, and the color will be yellow and dry after it is made, and the color will only be darker after oiling and waxing. Moreover, the sour branches will contain green tendons, that is, there will be green places, and there will be no small leaf red sandalwood.

In terms of texture, the quality of the small-leaved red sandalwood is delicate, and the texture will be finer and denser. The peak pattern of the sour branch mountain is obvious, and the texture is relatively wide and heavy. The texture of the new material in the small-leaved red sandalwood will be relatively coarse, but there will still be a certain gap with the arrangement of the texture of the sour branch, and it will not reach the width and thickness of the sour branch.

In terms of feel, the small-leaved red sandalwood is the king of the wood, the dry density is greater than 1, the same size of the red sandalwood and sour branch bracelet, in the hand of the feel, the small-leaf red sandalwood will be heavier, very pressing. The red sour branch will be relatively lighter, and the feeling of pressing the hand is relatively poor.

Let's talk about the common misunderstanding that there is no Venus, it is not the small leaf red sandalwood that is the red acid branch, this statement is absolutely wrong. Venus is the oxidative accumulation of resin and minerals in trees that exist in the ducts, and many woods will have Venus. The probability of the existence of Venus small-leaved red sandalwood is low, so it is rarer, and it will be higher in terms of **, not that the small-leaved red sandalwood without Venus is a red acid branch.

Based on the above points, we can distinguish between the small leaf red sandalwood and the red acid branch by color, weight and texture when we simply distinguish between the small leaf red sandalwood and the red acid branch.

The obvious differences between the small-leaved red sandalwood and the red acid branch are as follows:

The small-leaved rosewood is more delicate than the red acid branch, and the brown eyes are much smaller.

There are few small leaf red sandalwood patterns, and there are many red acid branch patterns.

The hardness of small-leaved red sandalwood is higher than that of red acid branches. The density is also greater than that of the red sour branch.

The small-leaved red sandalwood is basically tasteless, and the red sour branch is full of aroma.

It is mainly the smell of smoke after burning, with the smell of sandalwood and the sour smell of red sour branches. The rest is the same.

One is expensive and the other is cheap, hehe. Rosewood is more high-grade than red sour branches.

The identification method of pterosandalwood is as follows:

Five-step identification. The first trick: look.

Compare the grain characteristics of rosewood and carefully observe the color. It is best to prepare two or three authentic rosewood samples with different textures, compare them, and find the feeling of identifying the texture of the rosewood after seeing more.

The second trick: Knock.

On the one hand, by checking the red sandalwood object, to see if it reaches the weight of red sandalwood (the volume should be reached); On the other hand, I pay attention to the feel in the process of squeezing. Generally speaking, the number of red sandalwood objects exceeds 800 pieces, and the feel is there. What is Feel?

It can only be understood, not spoken.

The third trick: smell.

Scrape the stubble with a knife and smell the sawdust. "Sandalwood red sandalwood" has a faint fragrance, if the fragrance is too strong or no aroma, it is suspicious.

The fourth trick: bubbles.

Soak the sawdust or sawdust of red sandalwood in water or white wine. The leaching solution of rosewood sawdust water is purplish-red and fluorescent. Rosewood chips can be dyed after being soaked in alcohol and will never fade.

Fifth trick: knock.

Use authentic rosewood blocks, preferably "rosewood rulers", gently tap the rosewood object and listen to its sound, the percussion sound of the rosewood is crisp and pleasant, and there is no noise.

Key points of red sandalwood identification:

The bark has large, deep longitudinal fissures, and the oblique surface is red and yellow layered. The underside of the outer skin is bright yellow. The surface of the material and the chord-cut mask have fine ripple marks. The spacing of the band-like axial parenchyma is small and wavy. The wood is particularly heavy and hard.

Methods for identifying red sour branches:

There are two main differences between red and white acid branches: first, the color of the material. The color of the red sour branch wood is red purple, the color is darker and easy to darken, the longer it is placed, the deeper the purple or even close to black, that is, there is a very deep pigment, and it will be purple when wiped with an alcohol cloth, which is generally called the old mahogany, this material is rich in oil (the pores of the red sour branch are not water, but oil and gum), which is the material used for modern high-end furniture.

The nature of white sour branches is close to that of red sour branches, but the pigment is lighter and not easy to darken, and it is generally called true mahogany or mahogany. 2. Capillaries. The capillaries of the white sour branch are smaller, and the capillary of the red sour branch is larger.

Which kind of red sandalwood do you want to know? Small-leaved red sandalwood (sandalwood red sandalwood) or large-leaved red sandalwood (Lu's black sandalwood), red sandalwood is very recognizable, red sour branches are more, Laos big red sour branches (Cochin sandalwood), Burmese sour branches (Austonian sandalwood) and many others.

These are common names, and you have to understand the scientific names of their wood first. Each colloquial name includes many kinds of wood. There are 33 species in 5 genera and 8 categories, including thousands of species of wood.

The red sour branch is a tropical evergreen tree, which is called the old red tree in the north of our country, and the red sour branch is called the sour branch in Guangdong, Guangxi, and the national mahogany standard is set as the red sour branch The red sour branch is a leguminous sandalwood wood, mainly produced in India and some countries in Southeast Asia, and the red sandalwood is not easy to say, he is not actually a tree, and the red sandalwood on the market mostly refers to the iron thread Zijing. Flooring manufacturers are good-sounding, easy to remember, and they are called red sandalwood Some are caused by manufacturers and dealers who are not familiar with tree species Over time, red sandalwood has become a common name.

Glad to answer for you :The obvious differences between the small-leaved red sandalwood and the red acid branch are as follows:

If you grasp these points, you will basically understand.

Rosewood discernment.

1) The heartwood is orange-red on the new face, and turns dark purple or black purple after a long time.

2) Scratching on a white wall or white paper can leave a scratch like a crayon (but some other woods also have this characteristic).

3) When the sawdust is immersed in alcohol, a large amount of orange-red smoke-like pigment will immediately roll and spray out, which is intense, fast and beautiful; Except for Lu's black sandalwood (purple and red in color), the effect of other wood species is not obvious.

4) Wipe the surface of the wood with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol, and the cotton ball will soon turn orange red (some other wood has this characteristic, but some wood species need to be wiped many times).

5) Sawdust water leaching solution is purple-red with blue-green fluorescence.

6) Air-dried wood sinks when it enters the water.

The above 6 characteristics must be present at the same time, otherwise it can be judged that it is not sandalwood rosewood. In order to make it easier to remember, the following formulas are written:

New orange-red, long-black purple;

Smoke billows from alcohol bubbles;

When entering the water, it sinks into the water;

All of the above six points are in place;

Cotton balls turn orange when rubbed;

Fluorescence display of boiling water immersion;

When the pen writes better than crayons;

What is not red sandalwood?

Generally speaking, the dark-colored red acid branches are dense, the growth rings are tight, and the texture is clear and straight. The light-colored red sour branches are relatively low-density, the growth rings are loose, some are dark, and the surface looks like a layer of mist.

In fact, the color of the small leaf red sandalwood (red sandalwood) is almost black after a long time, and there are cow hair patterns on it, and the red sour branch has no cow hair pattern in addition to the sour fragrance, and the color is not as deep as the small leaf red sandalwood, it is best to provide **, otherwise you can't tell what the material is.

The simplest thing is to weigh it, the red sandalwood is all submerged, and the sour branches are generally not submerged.

The obvious differences between the small-leaved red sandalwood and the red acid branch are as follows:

The small-leaved rosewood is more delicate than the red acid branch, and the brown eyes are much smaller.

There are few small leaf red sandalwood patterns, and there are many red acid branch patterns.

The hardness of small-leaved red sandalwood is higher than that of red acid branches. The density is also greater than that of the red sour branch.

The small-leaved red sandalwood is basically tasteless, and the red sour branch is full of aroma.

There are two levels of density, so it's easy to distinguish.
