Recently, the price of mahogany furniture has generally increased by more than 10%. Among them, the largest increase in the finished furniture of red rosewood furniture is 15% -20%. Real estate purchase restrictions, car license restrictions, and even some of the mahogany are now restricted from export.
Due to Dalbergia coccinellata (Big red rosewood), Dalbergia dahurica (Central American red rosewood), Dimple Dalbergia (red rosewood of South America), Belize Dalbergia (black rosewood of Central America), Dalbergia lutea (Daiye red sandalwood) and other five kinds of mahogany are listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CIT ES Convention), and will be strictly restricted from June 12 this year. Nearly two domestic mahogany raw materials Monthly skyrocketing 15%, compared with a year ago, the increase rate generally exceeded 30%, and the highest reached 50%. The shortage of raw materials also caused the recent price rise of mahogany furniture by 10% -20%, and is expected to continue to rise in the second half of the year. At this time the purchase is at the right time.
Event origin
5 new mahogany tree species are added to the endangered species of wild animals and plants,
Raw material imports are getting tougher
According to the Redwood Branch of the China Forest Products Industry Association, at the end of March this year, the 16th Conference of States Parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (also known as the C ITES Convention) announced a revised list of appendices. According to the list, Dalbergia sibirica, Dalbergia mesoamerica, Dalbergia dentata, Dalbergia serrata, and Dalbergia lobata are listed from the appendix to the appendix. So far, according to China's national standard for mahogany, seven mahogany tree species have been included in the appendix and appendix of the CIT ES Convention. These tree species must have an import and export license or a re-export certificate to conduct international trade. June 12 this year Effective implementation.
For the above-mentioned mahogany scientific names, the citizens may not have any concept, but their common names are actually red rosewood (or Laos red rosewood), Central American red rosewood, South American red rosewood, Central American black rosewood and red leaf sandalwood ( Or black rosewood). Wu Bingliang, deputy director of the China Traditional Furniture Professional Committee, director of the China Ming Style Furniture Society, and chairman of Wu's Xinglong Ming Style Furniture Art Co., Ltd., said that in the Guangdong market, red rosewood, red rosewood and red leaf sandalwood are more mainstream, Two rare see.
Why are these tree species "listed"? It is understood that this is the result proposed by Thailand, Cambodia and some Central American countries, which are important countries of origin of the above tree species. This aspect shows that the above-mentioned tree species are increasingly scarce, and on the other hand, it also shows that the country of origin controls export control of redwood species more and more stringently. Qiu Zhikun, deputy general manager of Yonghua Mahogany Furniture, said that it is very difficult for timber merchants to obtain import and export licenses or re-export certificates, and the import of mahogany raw materials will become increasingly difficult in the future.
Market hit
Raw material prices have skyrocketed all the way, the biggest rosewood rose 50%
The price of mahogany, a scarce resource, has been volatile in recent years. The reporter learned from the market that since the end of last year, the price of mahogany raw materials has continued to rise, and in April and May after the CIT ES Convention was announced, it has risen all the way. It has risen by at least about 15% in the past two months. Since the same period last year, it has generally increased by more than 30%, and some high-end scarce wood species have increased by as much as 50%.
In particular, Dalbergia sibirica (Crimson Rosewood), which is included in the appendix of the CIT ES Convention, can be said to have the most dramatic increase. The reporter learned from the timber market that the price of scarlet rosewood in June last year was about 110,000 to 120,000 yuan per ton of conventional wood with a diameter of 20 cm and a length of more than 2 meters. Now it is about 150,000 yuan, an increase of up to 30% Up and down; due to the shortage of resources, the "short material" of about 1 meter has increased from 60,000 yuan to 90,000 yuan, an increase of up to 50%; while the relatively scarce large material with a diameter of more than 30 cm has increased by more than 50%, from 18 Ten thousand yuan / ton rose to 300 thousand yuan / ton.
"He who has big and good materials in his hand is not willing to sell now, and he will quote a" high price "whenever he can. Whether you like to buy or not, anyway, if you stay in your hand, it will rise over time." Qiu Zhikun said that now is not only Due to the problem of rising material prices, it is becoming more and more difficult to purchase timber. Those who have "materials" in their hands are not in a hurry to sell.
In addition to several major varieties listed in the Convention, such as Barry Dalbergia (white rosewood), Daguo Red Sandalwood (Myanmar rosewood) and other prices of most mahogany raw materials have also skyrocketed. Qiu Zhikun, vice-premier of Yonghua Mahogany, said that Dalbergia rose by about 10% in May alone, and should have risen by more than 30% from last year to now; Dalbergia rosea also rose significantly, with 5% -10 every month in the past two months The increase of about%, and now the raw materials are still very tight, it is difficult to purchase.
Qiu Zhikun believes that this is related to the import and export restrictions of Dahong rosewood. Dahong rosewood furniture is currently the mainstream product in the high-end market of Guangzhou rosewood. With the increasing scarcity of raw material resources and the difficulty of imports, many rosewood manufacturers are looking for New alternative wood, and Barry Dalbergia and Daguo Red Sandalwood are currently more promising alternatives.
Mahogany furniture prices have recently risen by more than 10%
A few days ago, when the reporter visited the stores where the mahogany furniture was concentrated, such as Yuehe Flower World, Jisheng Weibang Mahogany House, etc., he learned that in the mahogany furniture market, when the mahogany raw materials are tight, the price of finished mahogany furniture products rose by more than 10%. Rosewood furniture finished products rose the most, ranging from 15% to 20%.
"Beijing and Shanghai have risen for a long time, and most of us have only recently risen." Liu Tao, person in charge of Furuige rosewood, said that many rosewood production companies in Beijing and Shanghai had raised their prices at the beginning of this year. The Guangzhou side is relatively lagging behind, and Furuige raised prices by about 15% in mid-May. The price of Yonghua Redwood will also be increased early next month. The price of furniture of Dalbergia rosea (Big Red Rosewood) will be increased by 20% and that of Barry Dalbergia (White Rosewood) will be increased by about 10%.
Relative to Yonghua and Furuige's "blatant" price increases, more rosewood manufacturers and dealers are more willing to quietly raise prices quietly. Hu Jing, the person in charge of Jinshanghong, who runs high-end mahogany, said, "Now the prices of goods received from manufacturers are different every month, and they are rising every time, but the increase is not high," therefore, the sales in Jinshanghong store The price has also been changing quietly, but each time it is adjusted slightly higher, with little change.
Of course, some manufacturers said that the current market situation is not too ideal, and the price increase will not be considered for the time being. Hu Yuanlian, general manager of Yongbotang Redwood, said, "The current increase in raw materials is still within the scope of the company ’s tolerance, plus most of the factory There is wood hoarding, therefore, the furniture price of Yongbotang will not change much in the short term. "
Prospect forecast
Imports are restricted and raw materials are in short supply. It is expected to rise 15% -20% in the second half of the year
Regarding the future market trend of mahogany furniture, Wang Ke, executive vice president and secretary general of the Guangdong Furniture Association, said that the current price increase is still relatively rational, and the price of mahogany may continue to rise. There are two main reasons for this. On the one hand, it takes a long time for the mahogany to grow into wood, and the resources are already scarce. In addition, the Southeast Asian countries in the mahogany production area have recently strictly controlled timber exports, and only a small amount of wood has been added. Like the most popular rosewood, according to the current market consumption situation, the rosewood in Southeast Asia will also be cut off within two years, so the price will only increase.
On the other hand, due to the restrictions of the CIT ES Convention, it will become increasingly difficult to import mahogany raw materials in the future. "In foreign countries, the felling and development of endangered tree species is similar to the sale of drugs. If you seize it, you will be sentenced. Taking Hainan Huanghuali as an example For example, when I went to the port 10 years ago, I could buy one, but now it is difficult to buy one. Nowadays, a lot of wood, such as Dalbergia chinensis, I think it will be the same soon. By then, many companies may face the dilemma of having no rice. "
"It will rise in the second half of the year, and it is expected that rosewood furniture will rise another 15% -20% by October or November." Qiu Zhikun, deputy general manager of Yonghua Redwood, said that now the operation experience of the manufacturers of rosewood furniture is relatively mature, and the prices of materials are also With continuous changes, companies are expected and prepared for this. Many companies are also storing raw materials, so furniture prices will usually rise about half a year later than raw materials. "The price increase now corresponds to the increase in raw materials at the end of last year. The skyrocketing will be reflected in the second half of the year. Consumers want to buy mahogany furniture, which is not high. "
Consumers can collect some well-priced and well-made furniture under economic conditions. For example, Jiaozhi Dalbergia, the current price is an average of 120,000 yuan a ton, the price of furniture products is relatively high, the appreciation rate is very stable, and will bring good benefits to consumers.
Investment Guide
Investment in raw materials is better than investment in finished products, and the appreciation prospects of white rosewood and Burmese pear are promising
The white rosewood scientific name is Dalbergia austria, which belongs to the red rosewood category with the red rosewood. The texture is very close to the red rosewood, but the color is slightly different. The red rosewood is reddish, and the white rosewood is yellowish and partial. Brown. At present, the price of red rosewood is much higher than that of white rosewood, so some bad merchants often use white rosewood dyeing to impersonate red rosewood.
Qiu Zhikun, deputy general manager of Yonghua Furniture, believes that after the red rosewood gradually disappears, the white rosewood will gradually be welcomed by the people who love the red rosewood and replace the status of the red rosewood. At present, 80% of Yonghua's products are scarlet rosewood, but some white rosewood varieties will be gradually added in the future. For example, it is currently promoting the best floral rosewood furniture in white rosewood. At present, there are not too many people concerned about white rosewood, and the price of raw materials is not too high. It is a good time to purchase 20,000-30,000 yuan / ton, and the prospect of appreciation is very optimistic.
In addition, the current price of rosewood furniture on the market is also very popular because of its beautiful texture and beautiful texture. Among them, Burmese rosewood (also known as grass flower pear, scientific name big fruit red sandalwood) has good appreciation potential and deserves attention. Mr. Tang, who is an expert in mahogany rosewood, said that there are also many varieties of pears. Except for Huanghua pears, there are common Brazilian pears, red pears, African pears, and grass pears on the market. It does not belong to the national standard mahogany category.
Among the several types of rosewood, only Burmese rosewood belongs to the national standard rosewood. The current raw material price is about 25,000 yuan / ton, which is the best and most valuable appreciation of ordinary rosewood.
However, it should be reminded that redwood investment is the same as gold investment, and raw material investment is better than finished product investment. The mahogany furniture is beautiful and practical, and is a good choice for collection and use, but because it is not easy to change hands, it is actually not a particularly good investment choice.
