How to distinguish solid wood, veneer and sticker furniture

Since the development of modern wood furniture, it has formed a large market pattern with diverse styles, complete varieties and complete grades. While diversified markets offer a wealth of choices, they also have problems that are mixed and difficult to distinguish. As a customer, be sure to keep your eyes open when you buy.

Solid wood is often used for varieties and parts that are taught less, and precious wood rarely uses solid wood. For example, solid wood dining chairs are more common, but generally used in the middle and high-grade imported beech, mid-grade maple, birch, domestic eucalyptus, low-grade rubber wood. If someone tells you that he is selling "imported black walnut solid wood dining chair", five or six hundred yuan, then he must be in you. Most of the chairs were painted in black walnut with birch paint, which is common in both the Chinese and foreign furniture industry. However, it was originally intended to save costs and harmony, but it was used to cross the sea and had to be prevented.

There are many modern panel furniture facing materials, among which veneer and stickers are very common, but the grades are completely different. The veneer furniture is rich in natural texture, beautiful and durable, but the price is relatively high, and the sticker furniture is easy to wear, afraid of water and unbearable, but the price is low and it is a popular product. Some types of furniture that are not worn out and are not close to water sources are currently mainly based on stickers, such as shoe cabinets and bookcases.

When customers visit the furniture store, they will see instructions such as “walnut floor cabinet”, “cherry wood coffee table” and “wooden dining chair” on the price plate. At this time, it is very important to figure out whether it is solid wood, veneer or sticker. Solid wood and veneer can be called “cherry wood furniture”, but the sticker can only be called “cherry wood furniture”, otherwise it will be a fish.

Solid wood - wood grain, wood ray (if usually expressed as "needle") is clearly visible, more or less should have some natural cockroaches (wood knots, wood plaques, black lines, etc.). The same piece of solid wood, whether it is wood planks or wood strips, the two interface wood grain should be able to clearly see the natural connection between the longitudinal section and the cross section.

Veneer - wood grain, wood rays are clear. There should also be natural flaws. Because the veneer has a certain thickness (about 0.5mm), when the furniture is made, it encounters two adjacent interfaces. Usually, it does not turn, but each piece is attached, so the wood grain of the two interfaces should not be connected.

Stickers - wood grain, wood ray are clearly visible, even imported high-grade paper, even wood enamel can be counterfeit, but it is different from natural veneer, it seems more fake. Sticker furniture is easy to reveal flaws at the corners. In addition, because the thickness of the grain paper is very small (0.08mm), it will be directly wrapped at the junction of the two planes, causing the wood grain of the two interfaces to be connected (usually the longitudinal section).
