Red sandalwood is a tropical plant that cannot be used in a hundred years. A rosewood can only be used after several hundred years of growth. And the ten sandal nine empty, between the hollow and the epidermis, that place, that meat can be used. Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a saying of inch sandalwood. Europeans and Americans have not seen the sandalwood material at first, so they think that the red sandalwood has no big material, and the red sandalwood can only do some small objects. Legend has it that the five-inch long rosewood eucalyptus model in front of Napoleon’s tomb surprised the visitors and thought it was rare.
In ancient China, the understanding and use of rosewood began in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Jin Cuibao’s "Ancient and Modern Notes" was recorded. It was called "red sandalwood, and it was Funan, and it was also called purple sandalwood." In the Ming Dynasty, this wood was valued by the royal family. , began mass logging. Due to the scarcity of red sandalwood, the domestic sandalwood was soon lighted, and then the official residence was sent to Nanyang for procurement. Since then, it has become a regular case and continued until the Ming Dynasty.
The woods purchased are not all in use, and many are stored for future use. This kind of procurement has a certain degree of predatory nature. Therefore, the wood produced in the Nanyang Islands is almost completely harvested, especially the rosewood. Those who can become objects are all bundled and gone. The world of red sandalwood is mainly found in the South Sea Islands. Therefore, as of the end of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, most of the world's rosewood was brought to China and stored in Guangzhou and Beijing. The rosewood used in the Qing Dynasty was mainly collected in the Ming Dynasty. Although the Qing Dynasty also purchased new materials from Nanyang, most of them were thick and not gripped, and the knots were not straight. This is due to the slow growth of rosewood, which could not be completed for hundreds of years. In the Ming Dynasty, excessive harvesting, no resurrection in the Qing Dynasty, and depletion of sources, is an important reason why rosewood is cherished by the world.
The best of wood - lobular rosewood: In fact, the rosewood is also divided into many kinds, just like mahogany, if it is not good, it will be fooled. Rosewood is classified by the Chinese Tree Taxonomy as "Phoebe genus, about fifteen species." But there is only one kind of rosewood in the true sense, that is, what we call "small leaf rosewood."
The lobular rosewood is a genus of sandalwood and is best in Indian rosewood. The earliest record of red sandalwood is Jin Cui Bao's "Ancient and Modern Notes", which is called "red sandalwood, out of Funan, and color purple, also known as red sandalwood."
The red sandalwood can't be made into a material for a thousand years, and it is often said that "the ten sandal nine air", the largest rosewood diameter is only about 20 centimeters, its preciousness can be imagined. Among the various hardwoods, the redwood is the finest wood, and the wood is the heaviest. The lobular sandalwood pattern is not obvious, the color is orange-red at first, and the dark purple lacquer for a long time, almost no annual ring pattern. The vascular pattern is extremely thin and has a skein-like shape such as a cow's hair. And lobular rosewood is still a valuable Chinese medicine, recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", red sandalwood can stop bleeding, relieve pain, regulate blood.
"Purple" means Xiangrui, and with the excellent woodiness and rarity of the red sandalwood, the rosewood is cherished by the royal family in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The emperors of the two dynasties did not hesitate to pay a lot of money, and gathered the world's skilled craftsmen to create a variety of rosewood furniture and ornaments. These things were the best at the time, but not to mention the fact that they have been passed down to this day. It seems that the rosewood has been covered with a more mysterious color. In fact, people in Europe and the United States pay more attention to the degree of red sandalwood than in China. It is said that there is a 15 cm long red sandalwood model in front of Napoleon's tomb. Visitors are all surprised and envious, and think it is rare. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the rosewood is "inch-inch gold".
The wood flower of the lobular rosewood is placed in the white wine, and the wood flower will immediately decompose into a pink color, and form a relatively sticky gel with the wine, which can be connected into a line when dumped. This is an effective way to identify rosewood.
Rosewood is divided into new and old. The old man is purple, the new one is red, and there are irregular crab claws. The characteristics of rosewood are mainly characterized by the color of the rhinoceros character, and its annual ring pattern is mostly skein-like, although there are also straight silk places, but there are always skein lines. The red sandalwood is fine and the wood is heavy. The method of identifying new and old red sandalwood, the new red sandalwood is soaked in water and then faded. The old red sandalwood is not faded; the color on the new red sandalwood can't be lost, and the old red sandalwood hits the color and wipes off.
The same kind of wood as the rosewood, there is sandalwood, an evergreen shrub, produced in Guangdong, Yunnan and other places in China. Its leaves are long scorpion-shaped, with no petal at the tip of the leaf and four pieces of cleft palate. The wood is heavy, fragrant, and there are two kinds of yellow and white. It is often used as a spice, or as a small device such as a fan bone or a box. Wood is not as good as rosewood.
"The Museum of the Museum" and "Zhu Fanzhi" put the rosewood into the sandalwood class, and thought that the red sandalwood is a kind of sandalwood. "The Museum of History" contains: "There are several kinds of sandalwood, there are the wonders of yellow, white and purple. Today, people use it. The sandalwood produced by the Jianghuai River is like its kind, but it is not sweet." It is fragrant in Guangdong, Yunnan and Zhancheng, Zhenla, Java, Mud, Siam, Sanfoqi, and Huizhou. It is also found in Lingnan. The leaves are like lychee, and the skin is blue and smooth." Sandalwood leather and yellow color are Dalbergia, skin clean and white is white sandalwood, leather and purple is purple sandalwood, and strong fragrance, and white sand is especially good." "Zhu Fanzhi" volume said: "its The tree is like the litchi of China, the leaves are also the same, and the purple is called the red sandalwood."
According to "Chinese Tree Taxonomy": "The rosewood is one of the leguminous families. There are about fifteen species, which are mostly produced in the tropics. Two of them are produced in China, one is red sandalwood and the other is rosewood." Mr. Wang Shizhen "The Ming Dynasty Furniture Treasures" said: "The United States Shihesfer has investigated the red sandalwood and thought that the Chinese rosewood imported from Indochina is a rosewood." From the current domestic red sandalwood objects, at least part of it is Rosewood. Whether other red sandalwood materials belong to the same tree species remains to be further identified by botanists.
Although there are many redwood trees, they have many common features, especially the color, which is purple-black. The production of red sandalwood furniture uses its natural features and uses a photonic technique. The red sandalwood is hard and the texture is slender and floating, and the change is endless, especially its deep color, which is stable and beautiful. If the carving is too much, it hides the texture and color of the wood itself, which is not taken by the craftsman.
