woods & color samples
We offer pieces made in a variety of precious hardwoods, so you can choose the wood in which you like the grain and appearance to match your furnishing and environment. We provide ebony, blackwood, chicken-wing wood, teak and rosewood in which you can choose either glossy or matte finish. Below are the wood samples:
|
chicken-wing
|
ji chi mu, literally translated as 'chicken-wing wood', describes a wood whose deep brown and gray patterns when cut tangentially resemble the patterns of bird feathers. The radial cut appears less dramatically with parallel lines of concentric layered tissue. |
|
blackwood
|
blackwood has the equivalent southern Chinese term 'suanzhi' appears during the middle Qing period—its literal meaning, 'sourwood' describes the pungent odor emitted when it is worked. Most of the dark heavily carved Qing period furniture is made from blackwood, it can resemble zitan but lacks the latters deep lustrous surface and its 'crab-claw markings. It is one of the most popular wood types for furniture making in China for it's beauty and durability. |
|
teak
|
Teak timber is valued in warm countries principally for its extraordinary durability, which is used for shipbuilding, fine furniture, door and window frames, wharves, bridges, cooling-tower louvres, flooring, panelling, railway cars, and venetian blinds. An important property of teak is its extremely good dimensional stability. It is strong, of medium weight, and of average hardness. |
|
ebony
|
the best ebony is very heavy, almost black, and derived from heartwood only. Because of its color, durability, hardness, and ability to take a high polish, ebony is used for cabinetwork and inlaying, piano keys, knife handles, and turned articles. sources from Indonesia provide the denser, finer grain and texture. |
|
rosewood
|
Rosewood is a deep, ruddy brown to purplish-brown colour, richly streaked and grained with black resinous layers. It takes a fine polish but because of its resinous nature is difficult to work. The heartwood attains large dimensions, but squared logs or planks are never seen because before the tree arrives at maturity, the heartwood begins to decay, making it faulty and hollow at the centre. Rosewood is much in demand by cabinetmakers. |
