Classic dining table and six chairs
This lovingly cared-for, reproduction round Victorian Pedestal Dining Table and six mahogany, balloon back, dining chairs were crafted in Christchurch. A highly prized wedding present, in the late 1970s, from my parents. Characteristic of this romantic period in British design history, this setting works perfectly to create that classic dining room charm and or fit perfectly into an eclectic modern setting. Featuring beautifully carved detailing, solid wood, and turned pedestal with elegantly sculptured legs that curve down to the exquisite brass footings. The recently, refurbished chairs seats with tasteful, velvet upholstered are stylish and comfortable. All in good-excellent condition. The separate tabletop and base make for easy transport, delivery, and assembling. Owners are downsizing and moving to be with our family overseas. Available to view in Cashmere. Can provide transport for a local buyer.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
