The hidden rules behind the majestic price of mahogany furniture

In recent years, due to the precious materials and the traditional handicrafts are all used in the production, the price of mahogany furniture has risen year after year, and each set has easily reached hundreds of thousands or even millions. However, the reporter visited the Beijing market and found that due to the lack of a clear and uniform identification standard, a large number of sub-good and false pretences appeared in the mahogany furniture market, seriously damaging the interests of consumers and legal operators.

Questionable furniture

In June 2008, Beijing silver-based Tianchuang Investment Co., Ltd. at a price of 5.9 million yuan to buy more than 10 sets of furniture from Beijing FLYING mahogany furniture factory, including national furniture and interior red sandalwood, red wood, rosewood and other rare species environmental quality supervision and inspection Center, inspection reports show: "according to GB / T18107-2000" mahogany "and GB / T18513-2001" China mainly imports timber name "standard test, the wood species can not be called rosewood."

A few days ago, the reporter followed Yinji Tianchuang's lawyers to Jinfei Redwood Furniture Factory in Changping District, Beijing. The factory said: One piece or two may be the carelessness of the workers or other reasons. According to the requirements of the industry standard QB / T2385-2008 of "Dark and Dark Hardwood Furniture" of the Ministry of Light Industry , only the label " full XX furniture " means that the furniture is all made of this kind of wood; while the contract of Yinji Tianchuang only nominal "Rosewood furniture", allowing no more than 10% of the "sapwood."

The two sides had a dispute about this. Lawyer Dong Laichao of Beijing Kaiya Law Firm believes that "Dark Dark Precious Hardwood Furniture", as an industry standard, also has unclear and detailed issues, leading to disputes between the two parties.

How deep is the market " water "

According to media reports, in 2008 , Henan consumer Ms. Liu purchased Huanghuali furniture worth 8.5 million yuan from Jinfei Redwood , and the contract agreed that the material is " Fragrant Dalbergia, commonly known as Hainan Huanghuali " . Later, consumers found that the material of this furniture was Vietnam Huanghuali, which was several times lower in price, and they took Jinfei Redwood to court for fraud. In May this year , the Beijing Changping Court dismissed Ms. Liu ’s lawsuit on the grounds that there was no authoritative body that could determine whether the furniture material was Hainan Huanghuali, and the plaintiff failed to provide evidence to prove that Jinfei Mahogany had committed fraud when selling furniture. The first instance lost.

In response to the " no authority " question raised by the court's decision , the reporter interviewed the wood furniture quality supervision and inspection station under the Beijing Municipal Quality Supervision Bureau and the Wood Industry Research Institute under the Chinese Academy of Forestry. The staff of the Beijing Furniture Quality Inspection Station heard that the reporter asked for the identification of " Haihuang " and " Yuehuang " and said that they can only identify whether the wood is Huanghuali, "the area cannot be identified . " The appraisal personnel of the Chinese Academy of Forestry said that in the national standard, only the provisions of Xiangzhimu, the expressions of “ sea ​​yellow ” and “ yellowish yellow ” are the titles on the market, and the national standard does not recognize it, only whether the wood belongs to Xiangzhimu Perform identification.

National mahogany standards are unclear

The causes of chaos in the mahogany furniture market include unclear national mahogany standards, incomplete appraisal system, and lack of effective constraints.

First of all, the prevailing national "Redwood" standard does not specify what kind of wood is included in some types of redwood. For example a lot of controversy Hainan pear pear Vietnam, in accordance with the provisions of "mahogany", the Hainan pear are "Dalbergia" but whether this Vietnam pear trees, has been inconclusive, leading to chaos on the market "flower " Charming eyes.

At the same time, there is no authoritative body for the identification of mahogany. At present, most of the domestic wood testing departments are some wood research institutes. These institutions can often only identify " classes " , but the key " origin " that affects the market price of some woods cannot be identified.

Regarding the reason why some manufacturers use the regulations on the name of furniture in "Dark Dark Precious Hardwood Furniture" as an excuse, experts believe that industry standards, as regulations within the industry, are not universal. Even if the products manufactured by the manufacturer meet the requirements of industry standards, if consumers are not clearly informed about the materials used in furniture, they are still suspected of infringing consumers' right to know.

Wang Yan, vice president of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce and Industry Collectibles Chamber of Commerce and general manager of Beijing Aijia Redwood Daguanlou, believes that due to the professionalism of redwood, consumers should first conduct simple learning when buying, it is best to have some redwood models, familiar with different The characteristics of the material wood pattern. At the time of purchase, consumers must choose a formal store and must ask for a valid sales certificate. The scientific name and Latin name of the mahogany material must be clearly indicated on the certificate, and the origin and use of sapwood of the material should be clearly specified.
