What is the general price of solid wood beds? Which material is better for solid wood beds?
Plant subject: Juglandaceae, English name: Juglan-dacae
Texture: hardwood, softer than oak (oak) and ash (ash)
Tree age: generally 6-8 years to hundreds of years
Characteristics: very stable, strong plasticity, moderate hardness. Juglans mandshurica is a world-famous interior decoration material, and it is the first choice for making precision wooden instruments such as wooden supports, instruments and rotary cutting techniques. It is the most stable wood species among all the precious wood in Northeast China.
reputation: the first of the three rare tree species in Northeast China, and it is called "the king of furniture in the world" in Europe.
Main uses:
A tree species appeared most frequently in the 28 Olympic Games. Juglans mandshurica was used as a considerable part of the domestic "wood branches" of the shooters in China Olympic Games. It is often used in the interior of high-end cars or high-end home decoration, the butt of sniper rifles, high-end furniture and carving crafts.
Remarks: Juglans mandshurica, a walnut tree without long walnuts is called Juglans mandshurica. Since all the Juglans mandshurica integrated timber are over 4-6 years old, it is actually wrong to call Juglans mandshurica on the market as Juglans mandshurica, because it must have grown walnuts long ago. Fine pores are an important reason for the stability of Juglans mandshurica, and at the same time, because of this reason, Juglans mandshurica can save paint consumption relatively when painting.
2. Oak, also known as oak, oak and white oak, is called oak in English.
Plant subject: FAGACEAE
Texture: hardwood, harder than most wood.
Tree age: generally, the maturity period is 4-6 years to hundreds of years.
Characteristics: The texture is extremely hard. It belongs to the beech family, with yellow-brown to reddish-brown tree core, which is obvious in growth ring, slightly wavy, heavy and hard. It is distributed in Jilin in the north and Hainan and Yunnan in the south of China, but it is rare to see high-quality oak, which still needs to be imported from abroad, and the high price of oak furniture is nearly 1, yuan per cubic meter.
Characteristics of oak furniture:
Advantages:
1) It has a distinct mountain-shaped wood grain, and the touch surface has a good texture
2) It has a high grade and is suitable for making European-style furniture
Disadvantages:
1) There are few high-quality tree species, and if imported, the price will be higher.
2) Because oak is hard and heavy, it is difficult to get rid of water. It takes a year and a half for furniture made without water removal to begin to deform.
3) The phenomenon of replacing oak with rubber wood is widespread in the market. If customers lack professional knowledge, it will directly affect the interests of consumers.
Main uses:
It is widely used to make veneer (decorative panel); It is a special wood (named oak barrel) for holding red wine; It is one of the best solid wood flooring materials; In 28, the solid wood floor of the weightlifting stadium in China's Olympic Games adopted our oak wood floor, that is, oak floor. And making high-end furniture.
Remarks: Most of the oak seen in the market are oak from China. For example, the red oak used for decorative panels is often boiled and dyed red, and the white oak is often bleached and dyed white.
Note: There are many rubber wood solid wood furniture passing off as oak solid wood furniture in the market. Rubber wood and oak are completely different from each other in terms of material, hardness, economic value and performance. Oak lives in the cold zone, rubber wood lives in the tropics, rubber wood is a tropical tree species, belonging to EUPHOR—BIACEAE (English name Euphor-biaceae), which is one of the poor tree species in terms of hardness, material, texture and performance. Rubber wood is an aging tree for producing rubber juice, which is cut down every 15-2 years and widely grows in central Yunnan, Hainan, Myanmar and other places, with two fatal weaknesses: It's easy to attract ants and other insects
2) Because rubber juice is harmful to human body, rubber wood can only be used after chemical treatment, but it's a pity that most rubber wood on the market has not been chemically treated)
3. Fraxinus mandshurica, also known as ash wood, is also referred to as Fraxinus mandshurica for short in folk
Plant subject: Oleacea in OLEACEAE
Texture: hardwood, better than oak. Harder than Juglans mandshurica
Tree age: the mature period is generally 4-6 years to hundreds of years
Features: beautiful texture
Reputation: Juglans mandshurica (Juglans mandshurica) and pineapple are one of the three rare tree species in Northeast China
Main uses:
Due to beautiful texture, Tree species commonly used by well-known domestic solid wood furniture manufacturers; It is widely used to make veneer (decorative panel).
note: the pores are large and relatively easy to deform.
4. Pineapple
Its wood has good luster, straight texture, coarse structure, obviously uniform annual rings, soft material, easy drying, good processability, beautiful color patterns, good paint and adhesive properties, and is not easy to split; Good corrosion resistance and other advantages, but because of its poor nail strength, furniture made of pineapple material often has shortcomings such as instability.
main uses:
medical use, solid wood furniture.
5. ULMACEAE
Plant subject: Ulmaceae, English name
Texture: hardwood, close to Fraxinus mandshurica
Tree age: generally 4-6 years to hundreds of years
Characteristics: rough texture
Famous name: one of the more famous tree species in Northeast China
. It is not bad to wear two kinds of elm, of which the thorn elm is the best. Ulmus pumila is produced in the northeast, and the amount is very small, so it is basically not seen in the market. Some of the more expensive ones we saw in the Beijing market were Huangyu and Baiyu. The wood grain of Ulmus pumila is more detailed and beautiful. Ulmus pumila is not very easy to deform, and it is not as easy to shrink as Fraxinus mandshurica, so it is similar to Fraxinus mandshurica, maybe a little better. In addition, the cheaper elm furniture on the market is all white elm, which is worse than yellow elm, and its deformation and shrinkage are worse than yellow elm. Most of northeast China is dominated by white elm, so many northeast ash furniture are mixed with white elm. I learned from some furniture factories in Dalian that many furniture factories there produce elm, and then declared all Fraxinus mandshurica. There is also a kind of elm, which is dark and called smelly elm, which is the worst.
Main uses:
Because of the rough texture of elm, it is often used to make "antique" solid wood furniture, and it is also often used to make informal solid wood furniture, reflecting its atmosphere and spirit of being with the sky;
Remarks: The texture is similar to that of Fraxinus mandshurica, but it is rougher
6. Oak
is commonly known as oak. Heavy, hard, slow growth, heartwood is clearly distinguished. The texture is straight or oblique, which has strong water resistance and corrosion resistance, and it is difficult to process, but the cut surface is smooth, wear-resistant, requires high bonding, and has good paint coloring and finishing performance. Domestic furniture manufacturers mostly use oak wood as raw material.
disadvantages of oak:
1) slow growth, long growth cycle (hundreds of years) and few high-quality trees.
2) The cementing requirement is very high, and it is easy to crack at the joint.
3) The processing is difficult and there are many processing defects.
7. Maple
Maple can be divided into soft maple and hard maple, belonging to temperate wood, which is produced from the south of the Yangtze River basin to Taiwan Province and abroad in the eastern United States. The wood is grayish brown to grayish red, the annual rings are not obvious, and the official holes are numerous and small and evenly distributed. The maple grain is interlaced, the structure kidney is thin and uniform, the quality is light and hard, and the pattern is excellent. Easy to process, the cut surface is not smooth, and it is easy to warp when drying. The paint has good coating performance and strong adhesion. Mainly used for pasting thin surfaces of plates.
8. Birch
Birch tree rings are slightly obvious, the texture is straight and obvious, the material structure is delicate and soft and smooth, and the texture is soft or moderate. Birch is elastic, its fiber has poor shear resistance, and it is easy to "cut off in the same stubble". The wood is heavy, not resistant to rot, and it is easy to crack and warp when it is dry, and it is not wear-resistant. Good processability, smooth section, good painting and gluing performance. Commonly used in carved parts, it is less used now. The distinguishing feature is multiple "waterlines" (black lines). Birch is a mid-range wood, and both solid wood and veneer are common.
9. beech
is heavy, firm, impact-resistant, easy to bend under steam, and can be molded. The nail has good performance, but it is easy to crack. It is unique to Jiangnan, with clear texture, uniform texture, soft and smooth tone. It is heavier than most hardwoods and prone to cracks when drying and processing in kiln.
1. Pine
Pine is a coniferous plant (common coniferous plants are pine, Chinese fir and cypress), which has the characteristics of pine fragrance, yellowish color, many scabs, quick response to atmospheric temperature, easy swelling, and extremely difficult natural air drying, so it needs manual treatment, such as drying, degreasing to remove organic compounds, bleaching to unify tree color, and neutralizing trees.
northeast pine
Plant subject: Pinaceae, English name: PINACEAE
Texture: softwood, hardwood pine
Tree age: 2-3 years
Characteristics: beautiful color, soft texture, easy deformation and cracking
Reputation: widely accepted
Main uses: widely used. The anticorrosive wood for outdoor materials is generally pine; B&Q Building Materials Supermarket has northeast pine finger joints for sale.
There are many kinds of pine trees in Northeast China, including Korean pine (with longer growth years, finer texture and reddish color) and white pine (with shorter growth years and thicker texture). White pine includes many kinds. Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, Pinus ichthyosis and cold sand are all northeast pine. Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica is easy to change color, and cold sand is one of the worst pine trees, which is of little use at all.
new Zealand pine (Chile): light yellow in color, straight in texture, easy to dry, small in deformation, medium in mechanical strength and good in processability, which is suitable for making furniture and various wood products.
Argentine pine: yellow in color, high in density, easy to crack and obvious in color difference
Brazilian pine (Uruguay): yellow in color, clear in arts and sciences, medium in mechanical strength, suitable for making furniture and various wood products.
Russian pine: It is the same product as Northeast pine, just because of the different national boundaries, so if Russian pine is used, there is no need to import it.
Remarks: Pine can also be divided into softwood pine and hardwood pine. Northeast pine and Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica are hardwood pine, which are better pine. White pine and larch are both softwood pine, which can't be used to make furniture generally, and are suitable for making lumbricus.
11. Cinnamomum camphora
is found in all provinces in the south of China, while Taiwan Province and Fujian are rich in it, with large tree diameter, wide wood width and beautiful patterns, especially with strong fragrance, which can keep insects away. It is often used to make cabinets, boxes, cupboards and other furniture to store clothes, which is its advantage; Disadvantages: Modern medicine has proved that the gas emitted by camphor wood contains organic components such as camphor, alkanes, phenols, alkenes and camphor ether, which can stimulate human gastrointestinal mucosa. Once inhaled, it will produce water-soluble metabolites-camphor oxide. Therefore, putting camphor wood furniture in the bedroom will affect the quality of sleep, making people excited and even insomnia; The fragrant smell of camphor wood furniture may also cause dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms; Pregnant women are prone to miscarriage if they are in contact with camphor wood furniture for a long time; Infants and young children will also have adverse reactions if they are stimulated by the smell of camphor wood for a long time.
Ulmus pumila
12 and Cunninghamia lanceolata
cork, which are fast-growing timber, have a maturity of 4-6 years. Because of their rapid production, natural wood fibers are loose and high moisture content, they can't be used to make furniture. They are generally used to make paper pulp, blockboard, density board and particleboard, and some are made into finger-jointed boards to make interior baffles of furniture, which can maintain the service life on the basis of the original performance.
The value of solid wood furniture depends not only on the wood it uses, but also on the following aspects:
1. Material: What kind of wood are the main materials and auxiliary materials? Different wood materials have different values and prices.
2. the processing equipment and technological capability of the manufacturer. Generally, the treatment of wood by large manufacturers is in place. The quality assurance of small workshops will be worse. Even if all the wood used in small workshops is genuine, the problem of warping and cracking may still occur in the future due to problems in equipment and technology.
3. workmanship: everything is beautifully done outside, and the interior feel, smoothness and neatness of workmanship also reflect the quality of furniture.
4. Accessories: the quality of binder (glue) and paint, which is also the key point of environmental protection, the better about environmental protection.
5. Hardware: hinges, slide rails, handles, etc. also have added value. Of course, the quality of big brands has been used for a long time.

Juglans mandshurica, Oak and Fraxinus mandshurica are the main wood for making solid wood beds on the market now, which have strong nail-holding ability, good flexibility, high surface hardness and good scratch-proof effect. The most important thing is that the cost is suitable, which can be said to be better among all kinds of wood, which is why the solid wood beds are mainly made of these wood. The density of each kind of wood is different, and the price also has a certain gap. In fact, many solid wood furniture are actually glued with veneer, and only some load-bearing positions are solid wood. Choosing a good solid wood furniture depends on his workmanship and whether the gaps are in harmony.
