Because of its unusual beauty and rarity in the world, Phoebe has long been dedicated to the construction of royal tombs, palaces and temples, so it has the title of "King's wood". So where is the origin of such expensive Phoebe? How to identify the true and false of Phoebe?
1、 Where is the origin of Phoebe?
1. What is Phoebe?
Phoebe is not the name of tree species, but the general designation of Phoebe wood with long golden filament. In the wood market, Phoebe, pear and red sandalwood are the most precious wood in the world. The price per ton is up to ten million yuan. However, the price of Nanmu without gold wire is close to or slightly higher than that of camphor wood.
2. Distribution of Phoebe chrysantha
Wild Phoebe is mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other Southeast Coastal and coastal provinces. In fact, Phoebe canadensis belongs to Lauraceae, where camphor trees can grow, they are suitable for their growth. Phoebe canadensis is warm and humid, heat-resistant and cold resistant. It is mainly distributed in wet valleys, valleys and ditches, and can tolerate intermittent short-term flooding; it grows well on neutral or slightly acid alluvial soil or sandy loam with deep soil layer and good drainage, but grows poorly in dry and barren areas.
2、 How to distinguish the true from the false?
1. Look at the number of gold wires
There is enough gold wire, with the effect of changing scenery step by step, very light..
2. Smell the fragrance
There is a smell, usually a medicine smell, a little bitter taste. If it's a bad smell or no taste, you need to be careful.
3. Feel it
The hand feel is delicate and the texture is soft. It can be scratched with fingernails. It is very soft and tender.
4. Weight
Jinsi Nan is light in weight. If it's very heavy, it's not Jinsi Nan. If nothing happens, it will be easy to deform and crack. Jinsinan is characterized by light weight. Although it is the key wood pressing hand, it is also relatively speaking. It needs to be considered well beyond its own scope.
Warm tip: generally, nanmu starts to grow gold wire 30 years later, and gold wire can grow the xylem of the whole tree in 60-90 years, so it is very scarce in the market at present, and the price is relatively expensive. Therefore, there are also some stresses in the care. If jinsinan's care is water free, sweating or water free, it's better to dry it with a clean paper towel; use a soft cloth to wipe the plate and play with it. It's almost a month or so to wrap the pulp, and then directly study it. In addition, it is necessary to avoid clock touch and scratches caused by long nails, because it is really soft and easy to be injured.
