In the life history of China people,
Has always played a very important role.
Mild and natural, with strong plasticity.
Can be used as utensils, tools, game toys, furniture,
Even houses and buildings.
As early as six or seven thousand years ago, the wooden structure building in Hemudu Gan Lan had begun to take shape and became a profound China building in the long history of China.
Although there are few wooden buildings now, wood is still closely related to our lives, and some people prefer wooden furniture.
Then gradually customize the furniture
Became a kind of
Fashion.
Customized furniture not only shows the unique personality of modern people, but also ensures the design details. High-end design with quality will bring different experiences to life.
However, do you really know enough about customized furniture with a sense of design, the choice of furniture wood and the daily maintenance of expensive furniture?
Material selection
There are no two identical leaves in the world. On the vast land, there are countless kinds of wood, and even two identical lines cannot be found on the same piece of wood.
Then, how to choose a suitable wood material has become a headache.
There are also three or six grades of wood, and the remarkable characteristics of general high-grade wood are:
1. Aroma;
2. Beautiful wood grain;
3. Excellent material and compact structure;
4. The material color is uniform and beautiful, and the tone is bright;
5. Oil-rich, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant and moth-proof;
6. The larger the diameter of the material, the better.
There are nearly 800 kinds of commercial timber commonly used in China's production, which are classified as 24 1 commercial timber.
Materials, and put these 24 1 commercial materials in accordance with the principles of material quality, reserves and so on.

Paint surface
Paint source:
Lacquerware has a long history in China. As early as the Neolithic Age, people discovered the lacquer tree, thus discovering its value.
Lacquer can be obtained by cutting the bark of lacquer tree. Lacquer, also known as national lacquer, raw lacquer, earth lacquer and wood lacquer, is a natural material widely used by ancient people. It is not only waterproof, insect-proof, bactericidal and antiseptic, but also acid-proof and moisture-proof.
Later, people mixed the more easily available cooked tung oil with paint to get paint.
The wood paints we are going to talk about today can be divided into oily paints and water-based paints according to their properties.
For a long time, oily paint has been used in our daily life, but in the last two years, water-based paint suddenly rose, intentionally replacing oily paint, and even the government forced furniture enterprises to implement it, otherwise it would only be eliminated.
Of course, there is a reason for this.
Compared with oily paint, the biggest advantage of water-based paint is that VOC (volatile organic compounds) emission is greatly reduced, and it has the advantages of less environmental pollution, high leveling, good appearance, easier polishing, aging resistance and yellowing resistance.
But in contrast, water-based paint also has the disadvantages of strong conductivity, high corrosion and particularly high construction requirements.
Because the water-based paint market in China is not yet fully mature, it may take a long time to fully develop and be accepted by the public.
Furniture maintenance
Even the best wood needs proper maintenance, especially solid wood furniture, which is expensive. Once there is a fatal crack, its value will plummet, which will inevitably make people feel distressed.
Wood cracking is mainly divided into surface cracking, internal cracking, end cracking and wheel cracking.
Wood has the characteristics of dry shrinkage and wet swelling.
The main reason of wood cracking is the high moisture content in the early stage. In the process of water evaporation in the later stage, the water evaporation inside the wood is uneven, which leads to the uneven internal force of the wood. Cracks appear in the dry part.
In fact, the most fundamental reason is that
The moisture content in wood is too high.
Caused.
Wood with low moisture content has better stability than wood with high moisture content, so the furniture made is very stable.
Of course, the drier the wood, the higher the technological requirements and the higher the cost.
Ideal and economical wood moisture content,
About 8%
About.
Therefore, the most direct way to solve the furniture wood cracking is to pay attention to the dryness when buying. If the financial capacity is limited, you can also buy it in advance and find a cool and dry place to store it.
In the current winter, due to the cold and dry climate in winter, people often take heating measures indoors, which intensifies the dryness of indoor air, and then causes cracks in solid wood furniture that is difficult to repair due to serious water shortage.
Here, I will provide you with a few practical maintenance tips.
1, reasonable moisturizing is very important.
People's skin needs moisturizing, so does furniture. Generally, the heater and other heat sources at home need to be at least one meter away from the furniture.
In addition, the time and frequency of opening windows should be reduced as much as possible in winter to avoid the entry of cold air and make the room drier.
.
Moreover, you can buy a humidifier or put some plants such as green radish and rich bamboo to keep the air humidity.
Of course, solid wood furniture is afraid of dryness and humidity. The indoor humidity should be controlled at 40% to 60%.
Humidifier or something is best not to be too close to furniture.
2. Waxing in time is the key.
Solid wood furniture should be waxed regularly in winter. Waxing can not only lock the moisture of solid wood furniture more effectively, but also make the furniture look more shiny and the surface is not easy to vacuum.
Under normal circumstances, it is only necessary to wax once a quarter, because too much waxing will also damage the appearance of furniture coatings.
3, often clean don't careless.
Dust is the first killer for furniture, especially solid wood furniture. Especially, if the dust accumulated in the gap of carved decoration cannot be cleaned regularly, it will not only affect the appearance, but also accelerate the aging speed of furniture.
If the solid wood furniture is stained, it will be more difficult to clean. At this time, it is necessary to use special furniture cleaner instead of oily cleaner, because oily cleaner will whiten the furniture surface. In addition, alcohol, gasoline or other chemical solvents can not be used, otherwise it will bring fatal damage to solid wood furniture.
4. Keep in mind the daily protection.
? Solid wood furniture avoids long-term direct sunlight, which will make the wood easy to dry, crack and partially fade.
? Handle with care to avoid collision and abrasion. If you need to move particularly heavy furniture, you can put a soft rope under the furniture chassis and lift it up before moving it.
? Stay away from heat sources and corrosive substances, otherwise it will cause irreparable damage to solid wood furniture.
? Avoid uneven placement of solid wood furniture,
If it is uneven, the tenon or fastener will loosen after a long time, and the bonded part will crack, which will directly affect the service life of furniture.
? Avoid pressing heavy objects on solid wood furniture, especially televisions and fish tanks. It is easy to cause furniture deformation if it is placed for a long time.
