Redwood furniture price diving is tricky

High-quality mahogany furniture won't be easily discounted

Real high-quality mahogany furniture is not something that can be easily sold at a discount. The market for mahogany furniture, once considered a symbol of aristocracy, has been on a downward trend due to various factors, including the upstream real estate market. Many brands are offering discounts and promotions, but this has also led to an increase in fake or low-quality products flooding the market. Some unscrupulous sellers even mislead customers by falsely claiming to be direct factory outlets. Industry experts have pointed out that genuine mahogany furniture will not be significantly discounted, as it’s built to last and maintain its value over time. Most of the furniture available today is made from cheap scraps or even completely fake materials. As a result, consumers should be cautious when buying or collecting mahogany furniture, and take the time to educate themselves to avoid being deceived.

Enormous price differences between different wood types

The aggressive sales tactics of aristocratic-style mahogany furniture have attracted many buyers, but some consumers have reported confusion over the wide range of prices for what seems like the same type of furniture. Online forums are filled with complaints about being scammed, with some businesses replacing parts of red rosewood furniture with cheaper alternatives, or even using inferior wood to mimic the look of authentic red rosewood. According to insiders, the scientific and common names of different redwood species are often confusing, making it difficult for the average consumer to distinguish between them. This ambiguity creates opportunities for dishonest sellers. For example, the price difference between two types of mahogany chairs—also known as "sour rosewood"—can be as high as 100,000 yuan.

Industry insiders advise consumers to pay close attention when purchasing mahogany furniture. They recommend learning about the characteristics of the wood, such as oil content, grain patterns, and texture, to better identify quality pieces. Developing a keen eye and understanding the craftsmanship behind traditional Chinese furniture can help buyers make informed decisions and avoid falling for substandard products.

Most price cuts are for low-quality products

Despite the current surge in sales and promotional activities, industry insiders believe this weak market trend is likely to continue for some time. Many consumers and collectors see this as an opportunity to enter the market. However, according to sources within the industry, most of the so-called "price drops" are actually for small, low-quality materials. Real, high-grade mahogany will only increase in value and will not be sold at a discount. Even though some smaller manufacturers may lower prices to keep their business running, the cost of large, premium wood remains stable. High-end mahogany furniture, in particular, is unlikely to see any significant price reductions.

A representative from a major mahogany furniture brand explained that while some smaller companies may offer discounts to maintain cash flow, the price of raw materials over two meters long—especially high-quality pieces—has remained steady. There's no sign of price cuts on top-tier mahogany furniture.

Some industry insiders told the media that true high-quality mahogany furniture must meet two key criteria: first, it must be made from real, high-quality wood; second, the craftsmanship must be exceptional. Mahogany furniture that carries the legacy of Chinese traditional furniture isn’t just a product—it’s a piece of art with lasting value. Furniture that lacks proper craftsmanship or artistic merit does not hold the same cultural or investment value.
