Hainan huanghuali (referred to as “sea yellowâ€) was close to extinction in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties due to its slow materialization and unpredictable materials. According to industry experts, the Qing Dynasty once stored some huanghuali wood. When Qianlong retired, he used most of them to set up the “Qianlong Gardenâ€, which was completely exhausted when Yuan Shikai was enthroned. Since then, Huanghua Pear has disappeared, leaving only a few physical evidence and a legend.
Hainan huanghuali basically disappeared
When Hainan huanghuali reappeared in people's field of vision, it was the medicinal material exhibition area of ​​the Hainan delegation at the 1963 Shanghai Expo. At that time, some experts found a small number of wild trees in Hainan huanghuali in the deep forest, but the last batch of Hainan huanghuali was also cut down. At this point, it is difficult to trace the Hainan huanghuali aniseed material.
Yang Bo, the chairman of Beijing Yuan Henry Classical Furniture Co., Ltd., has a special name for “professional households†in Hainan. He told reporters about the bumpy experience of buying Hainan huanghuali. At the end of 2003, Yang Bo took a fancy to a beam of six Hainan huanghuali in the old house. At that time, the main price was 190,000. Yang Bo paid a deposit and waited for the house to be demolished. I can wait for two months, but I am waiting for the price to double. Since then, the originally agreed price has changed over and over again, rising to 860,000 a year later. Two years later, Yang Bo eventually spent more than 1.8 million to acquire the timber, which is ten times more than the originally agreed price.
Since 2005, Hainan huanghuali has basically disappeared. At present, the Hainan huanghuali furniture raw materials on the market are mainly old loose furniture and old tools, as well as some hoarding materials obtained from the medicinal materials. Since the newly planted Hainan huanghuali has been produced for more than 200 years, industry experts say that the fault duration of Haihuang raw materials may reach 200 years.
Huanghuali furniture began in the Ming Dynasty
Huanghuali began as a furniture in the Ming Dynasty and reached its peak in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. Hai Yan said that the Ming Dynasty was the last feudal dynasty ruled by the Chinese Han people. The ancient culture based on Confucianism was very mature. Huanghuali furniture was born in the Ming Dynasty and is closely related to the high level of education and aesthetic consciousness of the gentry.
During the Ming Dynasty, the opening of the sea ban was broken, breaking the millennial taboo of the closed-door country. Zheng He and Xiyang communicated the trade trade [1.07 0.00%] on the sea. The best quality Huanghua pear produced in Hainan Island, China, was able to land across the sea and then enter the Beijing Imperial Palace. In addition, the materials used in furniture are related to the needs of culture, nationality and the ruling class. The auspicious attributes of the royal family in the Ming Dynasty were fire, and the yellow pears were red and yellow. Their attributes were also fire, which became the preferred material for the royal family and bureaucratic furniture of the Ming Dynasty. The popularity of Huanghuali in the middle and late Ming Dynasty was almost obsessed with the world.
Wu Bingliang, vice chairman of the China Arts and Crafts Association and chairman of Wushi Xinglong Mingshi Furniture Co., Ltd., believes that the Ming Dynasty is a historical period in which the Chinese furniture art has developed by leaps and bounds. The form and function of furniture are becoming more and more perfect, and the Ming Dynasty huanghuali furniture will be China. Furniture art is brought into the realm. Today, what people call Chinese classical furniture actually refers to Chinese Ming and Qing furniture. Most of the furniture before the Yuan Dynasty was made from miscellaneous wood, which was vulnerable to damage and was rarely handed down. In terms of craftsmanship, styling, and materials, the standards that are difficult for today's people can be reached and can be passed down to generations. It should start with the Ming Dynasty's Huanghuali furniture.
Literati participate in the promotion of beauty
Different from the identity of the red sandalwood palace furniture, Huanghuali is the product of the Ming Dynasty literati.
Wu Bingliang told reporters that "the scholars and literati of the Ming Dynasty were extremely fond of the furniture made of huanghuali wood. The huanghuali furniture of this period is impeccable from the perspective of artistic aesthetics and ergonomics."
Haiyan, who has been immersed in the culture of Huanghuali for many years, also believes that it is because of the participation of the literati doctors that the Huanghuali furniture of the Ming Dynasty can have unique aesthetics and value. "Ren Yun natural, naturally, is the realm pursued by Chinese literati." Hai Yan said, "The scent of Huanghua Pear is flowing, gorgeous and gorgeous; ethereal and ethereal, similar to Chinese ink and wash ink; Jing Zi Tiancheng, and various natural phenomena It is closely related: the typhoon twists the staggered lines formed by the trunks, the grimace lines formed by the branches and so on, and the ancients use various bionic imaginations to compare these lines, so that the beautiful artistic conception of the heart will be communicated with the past and the present."
Hai Yan also said that the collection of huanghuali is also the most direct way to get close to Chinese culture and listen to the ancients. “The more you understand Huanghuali, the more you feel that this is an important part of Chinese cultural heritage. You can see many elements of Chinese culture, the evolution of Chinese culture, and the evolution of literati psychology.†Huanghuali itself represents a culture, she The illustrious life is composed of profound social and historical karma - the development of culture to a certain level, the political and economic environment presents a certain state, which has given birth to people's love for a certain art or a certain substance, and also formed The aesthetic taste of a nation.
The price soars comparable to gold
Although the classical furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties does not have the distinction of sea yellow and yellow, the modern huanghuali furniture has a clear distinction. Modern Huanghuali furniture is respected by Hainan huanghuali, the difference in origin, and the price is also huge.
Song Qiuxia, general manager of Yiyuan Redwood, said that Hainan huanghuali is extremely slow, and its medicinal value and collection value are high. In recent years, the price has doubled. Yang Bo told reporters that the price of Hainan huanghuali has risen more than 400 times in 10 years. At present, the price of Hainan huanghuali raw materials is much higher than the price of finished furniture, and it is seriously upside down.
For the rapid development of the price of huanghuali, the famous writer Hai Yan believes that the price of huanghuali in the Ming Dynasty is extremely high, comparable to gold. This situation lasted for more than 100 years, and the current high price is only a return and recognition. Huanghuali is a precious mainstream material in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty scholars. Despite the “fault†afterwards, after the reform and opening up, Chinese classical culture has received renewed attention. The Chinese collectors and the world collections have begun to connect, and Huanghuali has begun to receive much attention. After the publication of Wang Shizhen’s "The Collection of Ming Style Furniture", he set off a wave of overseas purchases of Huanghuali furniture from China. The price of Huanghuali also climbed all the way.
Hu Desheng, a researcher at the National Palace Museum and a member of the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, said that the rise in the price of huanghuali is inseparable from the characteristics of its own wood. He told reporters that Huanghua pear has beautiful patterns, soft color and fragrance. It is easy to carry out the blending of dark and light colors. It is also suitable for inlaying. It has the characteristics of good processing performance, moderate hardness, hardness and hardness, and is not easy to be deformed. The most respected wood in the Ming and early Qing dynasties.
According to industry insiders, the value of furniture collection is related to its scarcity. Since Hainan huanghuali has been difficult to find, its furniture price and collection value are also higher than other furniture.
