Mahogany furniture has been loved by people since ancient times, and today it is also the object of choice for many Chinese families. Although the mahogany wood is tough and durable, the raw materials are “extraordinary†and must be carefully maintained during the use of the life to prolong the service life of the mahogany furniture. Today, I will do some in-depth understanding about the maintenance of mahogany home!
What is mahogany furniture?
Mahogany furniture, are defined by their red wood furniture made of solid wood, solid wood furniture in top furniture, gathering the artistic and practical. Mahogany furniture first appeared in the Ming Dynasty. On the basis of inheriting the shape and craft of Ming and Qing furniture, the current mahogany furniture also draws on the characteristics of modern furniture, and is favored by high-end people with its graceful and dignified elegance. The high price of mahogany furniture has led to a certain understanding of the mahogany home before purchasing mahogany furniture. When purchasing mahogany furniture, it must be identified from the aspects of materials, craftsmanship, appearance, etc. This is an effective way to purchase mahogany furniture.
Wood type of mahogany furniture
The wood type of mahogany furniture is divided into 5 categories and 8 categories according to national standards. 5 genera, namely: rosewood, Dalbergia, Diospyros, genus, genus: 8 categories, namely: rosewood, rosewood, fragrant wood, black rosewood, red rosewood Wood, ebony, striped ebony, chicken wing wood. Redwood refers to the core material of these 5 genera and 8 types of wood, that is, the center of the wood, and there is no part of the living cell. Wood other than this cannot be called mahogany furniture.
When consumers purchase mahogany furniture, they must know the name of the material and the origin of the label in the furniture. Different origins lead to different material properties. For example, Burmese rosewood and Hainan huanghuali, which belong to the same rosewood, are much worse. The two kinds of wood cannot be said to be superior or inferior, but the color and color are different. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the logo of the furniture material before purchasing the mahogany furniture.
Maintenance of mahogany furniture
The maintenance of mahogany furniture is a key issue in the use of mahogany furniture. When a mahogany furniture is built in the exhibition hall, it is like a big girl who has not been released; when you put it in your home after purchase, it is like you. How to maintain it is especially important for a daughter who is going home, because it may accompany you for the rest of your life. Now, let's talk about how traditional mahogany furniture is maintained.
Traditional maintenance: South lacquer wax
In the history of China, the maintenance of mahogany furniture from the Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China was basically a method of adopting “Southern Paint North Waxâ€.
Nan lacquer refers to the maintenance of furniture in the area south of the Yangtze River in China. The northern wax refers to the area north of the Yangtze River in China. It is often used to maintain the furniture by means of hot wax. It is necessary to burn the beeswax containing various additives into the wood of the furniture. These two are the traditional methods of maintaining mahogany furniture in the north and south of China.
Modern maintenance: wipe the wax after brushing the curing agent
It is different now. The furniture that I buy now is produced in the factory factory. It is no longer the case that the carpenter comes to the furniture. In order to reduce costs and improve production efficiency, manufacturers mostly use a brush curing agent and then wipe the wax production process. The so-called curing agent is anhydrous varnish or 502 glue water. Such a process can form a layer of infiltrated glue on the surface of the furniture, and then wipe the wax on the basis of this. Although this kind of process has achieved the purpose of the manufacturer, the effect is greatly reduced compared with the traditional hot waxing technique left over a few hundred years. So when these furniture made with modern crafts are placed in your home, it will cause more or less such problems.
Daily maintenance: wiping with a soft cloth, waxing regularly, leaving the heat source
Solid wood furniture is the object of choice for many families. Whether it is modern style, Nordic style or Chinese style, there are solid wood furniture, but solid wood furniture will appear obsolete after a certain period of use.
Every two days, you can use a clean soft cotton cloth to wipe the surface of solid wood furniture. Remember not to use sponge or tableware cleaning products to clean solid wood furniture. We recommend using a special solid wood furniture cleaner, while cleaning and maintenance! Regular waxing can also play a protective role. Every three months, the wood furniture should be waxed once. Before waxing, check whether the surface is complete and whether there is any paint falling off! The solid wood furniture generally has poor heat resistance. Try to leave the heat source when using it. It is best to put a placemat on the table to prevent burns. With the above, you should pay special attention to daily care! Especially in the winter, you need regular artificial humidification to prevent the cracking of the wood. The ideal humidity is about 40%, and the indoor temperature difference should not be too big!
The curtain style is classic and elegant, the fabric is thickened, anti-stick wool is easy to take care of, not easy to pilling, wear-resistant and durable.
