In recent years, sandwood furniture has become the new darling of the market, and many consumers are willing to buy a set of use or collection. Recently, some insiders broke the news to the peninsula reporters. The popular gold silk sandalwood and red gold sandalwood in the furniture market are not the sandalwood furniture we know. The price is 10 times different from the latter price. The value-added space is limited. The consumers in Qingdao were fooled and mistakenly bought them as sandalwood. Experts said that Jinsi sandalwood is actually the name of the trader for the speculation. There is no such tree species. Consumers should calm their minds when buying furniture. Don't pay too much attention to furniture materials and return to the basic attributes of furniture.

Gold silkwood furniture is not sandalwood?
Recently, Mr. Wang, who has been engaged in the furniture industry for 13 years, broke the news to the peninsula reporter. At present, the Qingdao furniture market is full of furniture called gold silk sandalwood and red gold sandalwood. These furniture are not real sandalwood, but used. Wood posing, consumers mistakenly use it as a purchase of sandalwood furniture.
Sandalwood, its wood is hard, the fragrance is eternal, the color is beautiful and changeable, and the poison is not invaded. It is immortal, so it is also called Sheng Tan. Sandalwood furniture has always been considered a nobleman in furniture, and the rosewood furniture was used only by the royal family during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Does gold silk sandalwood and red gold sandalwood belong to sandalwood? The peninsula reporter did not find a clear statement on the Internet. Only some websites described it as high-quality furniture wood with good hardness, scarce materials and high collection value. "If you believe that the introduction of the Internet is troublesome, anyone can edit it. It is all written by the lumber merchants. The two kinds of wood and sandalwood do not actually have a dime relationship, that is, the heat of the sandalwood furniture. In order to sell well," said Mr. Wang.
"In fact, gold silk sandalwood, red gold sandalwood and what we usually call the elm, also called the jujube wood, this wood is actually not suitable for furniture, many are used as medicine. Buy back for a short time There may be cracking or deformation, which lasts for a year and a half, and lasts for two or three years, mainly depending on how long the manufacturer's wax on the surface of the furniture can last.†Mr. Wang revealed that this wood does not have much room for appreciation, but because Consumers don't understand that their profit margins are large, so they are highly respected by merchants.
Mr. Wang told the peninsula that since 2016, the concept of gold silk sandalwood and red gold sandalwood has quietly gone from fire. From the previous year to the present, it is estimated that there are already thousands of people in Qingdao. According to him, gold sandalwood is produced in Africa, the price is about 3,000 yuan / m?, and the price of red gold sandalwood is slightly more expensive, about 4,000 yuan / m?. The real ebony is now at least 30,000 yuan / m?, the price difference between the two is 10 times.
The merchants claim to be sandalwood
On the morning of the 9th, the reporter visited a number of furniture malls in the island city and found that the shops in these malls are selling gold silk sandalwood and red gold sandalwood furniture. In a shop selling solid wood furniture, sofas, dining tables, wardrobes... The reporter saw that the furniture category in the store was very complete, and the gold silk sandalwood furniture was placed in a more obvious position.
"The double bed of 180cm × 200cm is now more than 6000 yuan, all of which is sandalwood, 100%, and a penalty of 10,000." The clerk strongly recommended a double bed, saying that this is a special offer for activities. The flowers in the middle of the file to buy high-end furniture, so it is best not to miss. The clerk said that the price of gold sandalwood furniture is cheaper than other types of sandalwood furniture, so the sales in the store are good, and two or three pieces can be sold in one day.
Subsequently, the reporter went to a furniture store on Zhenjiang North Road, and cut off the four characters of “Red Gold Sandalwood†which was closely attached to it. The banner of “¥39800, 21 pieces of furniture delivered to home†hanging above was also very conspicuous. Regarding the question of whether Chijin sandalwood belongs to sandalwood, the staff said: "The sandalwood is divided into many kinds, red sandalwood, ebony, Dalbergia, gold sandalwood, red gold sandalwood... These are all sandalwood, very precious, It has a collection value." For the difference between gold sandalwood and red gold sandalwood, the staff said that compared with gold sandalwood, red gold sandalwood is better in quality and more expensive. The two materials are not too bad, but no matter which kind of sandalwood, they are very strong and durable. Generally, there is no big problem in 10 years.
"The real high-quality sandalwood furniture does not say more than 30,000 yuan 21 pieces, even 300,000 can not buy it! The price of a full set of red gold sandalwood furniture with a price of 39,800 yuan is actually only 10,000 yuan, the profit is huge, it is playing consumer The edge of the ball is not understood by the furniture material," said Mr. Wang.
Gold silk sandalwood is not standardized commercial name
In the propaganda description of the merchant, the gold silk sandalwood is very high quality, which is the best choice for high-end solid wood furniture. It is also called “the ninth type of redwood†by many people. However, the reporter saw that on August 1, 2012, the Ministry of Commerce issued the "Industrial Standards of the People's Republic of China - Redwood Commercial Name" part of the non-redwood wood commercial name is not used in the standard use, it belongs to the sapphire family Natomu, produced in Southeast Asia, is not standardized as gold silk sandalwood or silver silk wood. The characteristics of this kind of wood are: slower or slower drying, and it takes 6 months for the 40mm thick plate to dry. Dry, slightly split, split and split. The red gold sandalwood produced in Southeast Asia is the red jujube wood we usually say. It is a mixed wood with the characteristics of heavy wood, high hardness and good stability, but it is not a type of sandalwood such as red sandalwood, ebony or green sandalwood.
The peninsula reporter found that in June 2017, the Xi'an Industrial and Commercial Bureau opened a branch to some furniture and building materials merchants to arbitrarily label the "golden sandalwood" and other characteristics as suspected false signs and investigate. In May 2017, Mr. Liu of Chongqing accidentally learned that the so-called golden walnut that was bought for 17050 yuan was not walnut, but the face of the lacquer tree. Then he filed a lawsuit and was compensated by the court for 50,000 yuan. After the case was closed, the operator rectified and restored the real scientific name of the furniture wood.
The reporter inquired that the latest "Redwood" national standard, which was implemented on July 1, 2018, stipulates 5 classes, 8 categories and 29 kinds of redwoods. However, for sandalwood furniture, the state does not have a unified standard for information on its tree species, trade names, etc. The name of gold silk sandalwood, red gold sandalwood and so on continues and is gradually familiar to consumers.
Gold silk sandalwood is born for hype
A director of the General Business Department of the China Furniture Association, Xie, told the Peninsula reporter that in the process of circulation in the Chinese market, merchants will give some good "commodity names" to the ordinary wood in order to attract consumers. With the rise of mahogany, many ordinary woods have been awarded the title of “thai†by the merchants, such as red sandalwood and green sandalwood. The gold silk sandalwood combines the words "golden nanmu" and "tan", which is more valuable. In fact, this is the name of the trade for the speculation, the name that is not seen in formal occasions. It should be different. Tree species.
Chen Yanchun, the person in charge of Yiguxuan Redwood Building, has been engaged in the furniture industry for more than 20 years. In his view, compared with the precious hardwood market such as mahogany, the solid wood furniture market is mixed and the quality of the products is uneven. It is difficult for consumers to distinguish. The main reason is lack of Relevant industry standards and professional testing organizations.
The peninsula reporter learned from the industry and commerce department that they thought about taking the lead in setting industry standards, but no company was willing to respond, and it was put on hold later. In this regard, the reporter first dialed the Qingdao Municipal Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute telephone, the staff told reporters that they can only test the formaldehyde content of furniture and other indicators, and there is no qualification for furniture tree testing. The reporter then contacted the Shandong Provincial Product Quality Inspection Institute. The staff of the hospital also said that there is no tree species testing qualification, and the testing can only be carried out from outside the field.
“A penny is worth the goods, so consumers should be aware that when buying furniture, the possibility of buying precious sandalwood furniture with little money is negligible, so it’s still necessary to calm down, not just thinking about value-added, but also To return to the basic attributes of furniture," said Director Xie.
