Why the price of logs in mahogany furniture has increased several times

A few days ago, the CCTV financial channel "Economic Half-hour" broadcasted a program on the current domestic mahogany market, "Redwood" for the winter, which mentioned that the mahogany, which was once more expensive than gold, is now difficult to stop the market in the winter. The passenger flow is scarce and the transaction is sluggish. Many mahogany businessmen are still on the sidelines. At the same time, the price of logs in the mahogany market has increased several times, while the price of furniture has not increased much, with an increase of only 20% to 30%.

"Flour is more expensive than bread", which is a big strange phenomenon in the current mahogany furniture market. In the case of some scarce raw materials, entrepreneurs are now more concerned about the value of raw materials. Is this an improvement or a retrogression?

Changing ideas to replace wood

Redwood is a very "Chinese" concept. In the classification of tree species, no one or one type of tree is called mahogany. Only when it becomes furniture, it can be called mahogany. This is a cultural concept. Mahogany furniture can be divided into traditional hardwood furniture and modern hardwood furniture. The traditional hardwood furniture style is mainly composed of Ming and Qing classic hardwood furniture. The function is mainly based on furnishings and collections. It produces exquisite dark and precious hardwood furniture, including hardwood high imitation furniture, mahogany classical furniture and classical craft furniture. Modern hardwood furniture refers to dark and precious hardwood furniture that can reflect traditional furniture art and contemporary art innovation, and is exquisite in material selection and exquisite in design, with intellectual property and collection value.

Wood is very important for mahogany furniture. Faced with the rapidly increasing speculative demand in the short term, the supply of redwood raw materials in the market has decreased drastically, resulting in a sharp rise in prices. The current status of valuable wood is: huanghuali is difficult to find, lobular rosewood is extremely rare, and scarlet rosewood has been scarce.

In addition to the above three kinds of valuable wood, some alternative timber prices are as follows: Burmese rosewood price is more than 20,000 yuan per ton; white rosewood price is about 30,000 yuan per ton, most other timber imported from Africa and South America It ranges from a few thousand yuan to more than 10,000 yuan per ton. This phenomenon is like the previous lobular rosewood after the forbidden customs, other wood species that are cheaper than the lobular rosewood will follow the rising tide. In order to cope with this situation, entrepreneurs engaged in the mahogany industry need to bear the increase in the cost of furniture production and maintenance; on the other hand, they must invest part of the funds to improve the quality and technology of furniture.

In the past two years, the development of the mahogany furniture market is far less than before. Affected by the overall economic adjustment, especially the real estate market, mahogany furniture sales are still difficult to get out of trouble. However, from another perspective, the reshuffle of the mahogany furniture industry has arrived, and the three brands and the small brands that profit from the low-quality products will be eliminated. Only those enterprises with high-quality products as the core and backed by strong strength can stand out in this "shuffle war" and be in an invincible position. The author believes that the most important thing for the current mahogany furniture enterprises is to continuously strengthen the traditional furniture that inherits the classical woodworking structure and beautiful lines, research and develop the unique products of the enterprise, and strengthen the consumer's recognition of the corporate brand and product design.

In addition, due to the gradual reduction of precious materials, the future direction of the company is to find alternative materials that can meet the needs of customers while ensuring the benefits of the company. Therefore, in the choice of alternative wood, we must consider the stability, oiliness, specific gravity and the amount of the world. This will test the company's vision, whether the alternative wood can be one step ahead, and the first round of the market will seize the opportunity. The future development of the company lays a good foundation.

The cultural value of mahogany furniture is equally important

Some experts analyzed that in the second half of 2015, the mahogany furniture industry may pick up. To be sure, consumers' demand for mahogany furniture is still rising. When the economy is in a bad state, most of the lower-end African rosewoods are bought. When the economy is in good condition, they buy red rosewood, lobular rosewood, and huanghuali. The majority of people.

However, it is necessary to pay attention to the scarcity and preciousness of the mahogany itself to maintain its value. At the same time, manufacturers should increase the practicability, comfort and functionality of mahogany furniture. Enterprises should not become speculators, do a good job in product technology, control costs, and do a good job in branding services. These are the foundation of business operations.

“One piece of wood, one piece and one shape.” Each piece of mahogany furniture is different and has its own characteristics. In recent years, mahogany furniture with precious materials, originality and durability has become more and more popular, and to a certain extent, has become a symbol of user taste and cultivation.
However, like the impetuous world style, in many people who buy mahogany furniture, some people are addicted to the fine details of mahogany furniture, blindly pursuing the precious and rare wood, unilaterally pursuing the investment value of mahogany furniture, forgetting the mahogany furniture itself. The pleasure of our use, the cultural sentiment and the spiritual tranquility. Now, it is time to return to the source, and taste the “shape, art, material, rhyme, and god” of mahogany furniture, enjoy the beautiful shape of mahogany furniture, long-distance culture and bleak mood.
