Rosewood is also known as: fragrant, fragrant Dalbergia, which is a genus of Dalbergia genus, 10-15 meters high, with small and dense lenticels. The pinnate compound leaves are 12-25 cm long. Panicles axillary, branched as corymbose; stalks 3-5 cm long Light yellow, each flap is nearly equal. The pod is oblong-oblong, slightly pubescent at the base, blunt or sharp at the apex. The base is suddenly narrowed and connected to the delicate fruit neck. The neck is 5-10 mm long. The fruit is leathery and the part of the seed is obviously raised. It is like a chess piece. It has seeds 1 (-2). It is produced in Hainan, China. It is born in the mid-altitude with a hillside sparse forest, forest edge or beside the ground.

Common types of redwood: Dalbergia sinensis (Hainan huanghuali), lobular rosewood (sandalwood rosewood), rosewood, chicken wing wood.

Features of rosewood:

First, look at the strip stripes

The rosewood grain is thicker, the texture is more straight and more, the heartwood is reddish, yellowish brown and reddish brown, and the strip-shaped long lines are obvious from the longitudinal section.

Second, look at the interlaced texture

The texture of the pear is cyan, gray and brownish red, and several colors are staggered.

Third, look at polarized light

Looking at the refracted light from the cut surface of the pear, only one angle can see that the refracted light is the brightest and most obvious, while the other angles are not obvious. This is the polarizing phenomenon.

Fourth, look at the face

Huali also has a grimace, according to "Guangzhou Zhi" records: "...there are some ghosts in the pattern, but also the raccoon spot...".

Five, look at the cow hair

The origin of rosewood is different, and the wood is also very different. Some textures are fine and some are loose, but from the string cut surface, wood grain resembling cow hair can be clearly seen.

Six, see fluorescence

There is a layer of faint fluorescence in the pear. If you put a small piece of pear in the water, you can find that the water is floating with green matter, which can emit a kind of fluorescence. If it is raining, the stacked rosewood is wet, and this fluorescence can also be seen from the rainwater flowing out.

Seven, smell of sandalwood

Close to the rosewood and smell it with the nose, you can smell the rosewood also has a sandalwood fragrance, the taste is very fragrant, but it is lighter than the fragrance of Dalbergia. Editor's Note: In the "Knowledge of the Redwood", the rosewood class is classified as the rosewood, and many merchants call it "purple pear". The rosewood wood is divided into seven species, such as Yuedong Rosewood, Andaman Red Sandalwood, Hedgehog Rosewood, Indian Red Sandalwood, Big Fruit Tree Red Sandalwood, Cystic Red Sandalwood, and Blackfoot Red Sandalwood.
