What kinds of wood are commonly used in furniture? What kind of wood is suitable for furniture?
At present, there are several kinds of wood commonly used in solid wood furniture on the market:

First, Fraxinus mandshurica. The wood grain of Fraxinus mandshurica is very prominent, the sapwood is yellow and white, and the interior is brown and slightly yellow. After sawing and planing, the wood is slightly golden in color, moderate in hardness, smooth in texture, beautiful in pattern, good in processability and paint performance, waterproof and wear-resistant, and small in deformation, and is suitable for making various furniture.

Second, oak. Oak wood is heavy and hard, with thick structure, obvious wood rays, high mechanical strength, difficult to dry, difficult to process, resistant to damage, and difficult to bond, but it has good coloring performance and good bending performance, and is often used as furniture surface materials and veneers.

Third, elm trees. Elm wood is tough, clear in texture, moderate in hardness and strength, and can be adapted to general carved reliefs. The plane is smooth, the chord pattern is beautiful, and there is a pattern of chicken wing wood. After drying, shaping, carving and painting, elm can make exquisite lacquer carving crafts. It can be seen everywhere in the furniture market in the north. Elm and beech produced in the south are called north elm and south beech. And the width of the fabric is large, and the texture is moist and excellent; The deformation rate is small, and the carved patterns are mostly rough. Elm can be divided into yellow elm and purple elm. Elm is more common, and the wood is pale yellow when it is newly cut, and its color gradually deepens with the growth of tree age; Purple elm is naturally dark purple, and the color of heavy elm is similar to that of old mahogany. The biggest furniture in the north is elm, waxed and painted.

Four, birch and basswood. Birch has fine structure, high strength, good color, loose texture and easy processing. The difference between core wood and sapwood is not obvious. There are beautiful patterns on the tangent line. After drying, it is easy to crack, warp and deform, which is more suitable for making furniture feet and door frames. Basswood is soft and easy to process. Good coloring power and paint performance, small shrinkage, not easy to deform, very suitable for surface inlay.

Five, white beech, red beech. In the current home decoration, Fraxinus mandshurica has become the mainstream of the whole decoration market because of its low price and uniform color, but there are also shortcomings such as large patterns, delicate wood and yellowish color, so white and red beech trees are gradually popularized. Castanopsis eyrei and Castanopsis eyrei both belong to Cephalotaxus, with obvious annual rings and bright and full wood colors. The color of Castanopsis eyrei is dark and the color of Castanopsis eyrei is light.
