Red sandalwood- Originally from India, Southeast Asia, and Guangxi, China, red sandalwood has been a precious wood for traditional furniture since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The material is very excellent. The heartwood is reddish-brown and hard and dense. In particular, its deep colors are stable, elegant and beautiful. The furniture made is dignified, luxurious and low-key, and it is loved by collectors from ancient and modern times.
Due to the high density and slow growth period of red sandalwood, it takes more than 500 years to produce wood. Moreover, the hollow is serious, and the yield rate is relatively low. There is a saying of "ten sandals and nine empty spaces", and the fact that there is very little material, so the price of red leaf sandalwood keeps rising. There are no raw materials, only old materials. The older and harder the red sandalwood is, the darker and brighter the wood is, and you can get to the point where no paint is needed.
