A thick straight trunk.
The trunk of nanmu is thick, long and straight, with a small taper, which is very suitable for use. In particular, the golden nanmu is a treasure that China people are proud of, adding Chinese flavor to quadrangle architecture.
Strong luster
Nanmu has a very strong luster, and even has obvious bright spots when it is planed, which makes people feel its unique charm at a glance. Even if you don't paint it, it will get brighter and brighter. The bark is thin, with dark punctate lenticels, and there is a black ring layer at the junction of endothelium and wood, which adds to its mystery.
Representatives of history and culture
In the long river of history, Nanmu has always been the first choice for royal gardens and palaces. Important palace beams and columns in the Qing Palace are all made of nanmu, and furniture is often made of rosewood or Huang Huali wood. The rare and endangered Phoebe bournei is rare in China, but in the Forbidden City, the Ming Tombs, chengde mountain resort and other places, we can still appreciate its elegance.
