Dark Wood: Mahogany and Walnut

A set of dark antique wooden furniture. The wood is mahogany, walnut, or deeply stained oak, with a deep reddish-brown color; the surface has been waxed for many years, showing a deep, warm luster, but with numerous fine scratches, water rings, and dents; the corners are rounded from wear. Some parts of the veneer are slightly warped or have been repaired. Avoid: using light-colored and whitewashed wood, using high-gloss varnish that makes the surface glaring, making the surface brand new and flawless, using veneer and modern woodworking.

一組深色的古董木家具。木材是桃花心木、胡桃或深染的橡木,顏色是深棕帶紅;表面經過多年的打蠟,呈現深沉溫潤的光澤,但有大量的細小刮痕、水漬環與磕碰;邊角被磨圓。有些部位的木皮已經略微翹起或補過。避免:使用淺色與刷白的木材、使用亮光漆讓表面刺眼、讓表面全新無痕、使用貼皮與現代的木作。
