1. Dalbergia Dalbergia

The heartwood of Dalbergia Dalbergia is usually purple-reddish brown or dark reddish brown, with fine and beautiful texture, often with naturally formed patterns. Its material is dense, hard, heavy, strong, corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, and does not crack or warp. It is the best material for making high-end furniture, handicrafts, and musical instruments.

2. Phoebe

Phoebe is a unique plant in China. It is a precious timber species well-known both at home and abroad. It is the main tree species that makes up the evergreen broad-leaved forest. Due to logging and utilization in the past dynasties, this rich forest resource is close to depletion. The existing forest stands are mostly artificially cultivated semi-natural forests and scenic protected forests. There are still a small number of large trees in temples, cottages, parks, courtyards, etc., but they are seriously damaged by diseases and insect pests and are gradually declining.

3. Cinnamomum camphora

Cinnamomum camphora is native to China and is distributed in Henan, Shandong, Taiwan, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guangdong and other places, as well as in Vietnam, Laos and North Korea. Cinnamomum camphora prefers light and a warm and humid climate. It is not tolerant to cold or drought. It is suitable for deep, loose, fertile, acidic to neutral soil. Artificial propagation can be carried out by sowing seeds and cuttings.

4. Ebony

Ebony is 45m tall and 2.5m in diameter. It has large roots and small grooves on the surface. There are 15 species in this genus and 11 species in Africa, distributed in West and Central Africa. This species is often imported from Cameroon, Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea in large quantities. Slightly shiny, with staggered textures, very fine structure, very heavy and hard, high strength, and very large dry shrinkage. Difficult to process, contains silica, tends to blunt tools, and has smooth cut surfaces.
