Identification method of new and old mahogany furniture

Mahogany furniture began in the Ming Dynasty. Its appearance is simple and symmetrical, and its natural color and texture are pleasant. The mahogany furniture is made of high-quality and precious wood as raw materials, which are exquisitely carved to produce exquisite works of art. In the current market, many of the old mahogany furniture are made of fake and real, and most people will be difficult to distinguish their authenticity. This has also become the most troublesome thing for redwood enthusiasts to buy and store. The old mahogany furniture left us with a kind of solid rustic beauty, which is difficult for beginners to distinguish, so how to identify the new and old mahogany furniture? Here are some tips for everyone, just for reference.

   

Identify method one . See if the legs and feet of the mahogany furniture have any signs of discoloration and dampness. In the humid areas of the south, the mahogany furniture is generally placed directly on the mud. This will happen after a long time.

Discrimination method two , to see whether the encapsulated paste is naturally in the position where the user's hand often touches, a naturally formed encapsulated paste will appear. The new imitation paste is either unnatural or made in places that are not touched often.

Discrimination method three , look at the wood grain. Some mahogany furniture will have uneven wood grain on the surface, but look carefully, whether it is hardly rubbed out with a wire brush, and whether it matches the original wood grain. The hardly rubbed wood grain always has an unnatural feeling.

Discrimination method 4. Look at the copper parts. If the copper parts of the old furniture are original, they should be rubbed by hands for decades or even hundreds of years. There are various patterns on some copper work pieces, including animals, flowers, auspicious characters, etc. The essence of craftsmanship is difficult for today's coppersmiths to imitate. Some patterns with very strong folk interest can also distinguish regional customs and fashions of the times, so as to obtain precious cultural information. There are also some copper jobs that take too long. Although there is no slurry, they will leave traces of rust, a little green rust, or unevenness on the surface like a corroded print board. These are the keys to identifying the authenticity of old furniture one.

Discrimination method 5. After seeing the bottom plate of the mahogany furniture and the soft drawer of the drawer decayed or lost, you can clearly see the rattan eyes worn on the edge. For example, old tables and stuffy cabinets, etc., the bottom plate and the drawer board have an old look that does not look like. There are also matte black paint, but there is absolutely no anger. Then look at the side panel of the drawer, there should be a chamfer on the side to avoid hurting your hands. Another point is very important. Looking at the tenon, the past tenon is square, and the tenon is the one that locks the tenon. If you see the two ends of the mortise, it means that it is machined, and it must be new.
