Antique Dressing table

Marilyn from The Brook

Original Victorian 6 drawer Dressing table with bevelled mirror set within a frame with carved pediment at the top and situated on turned and carved support panels. Unsure of the timber used or where it was made.
To each side there are two small jewellery drawers .
The cabinet comprises two short drawers over two long drawers with original brass handles.
One of the drawer handles is broken, but the drawer can still be opened. The same drawer has a wire as repair but drawer still pulls.
Dimensions: 1070mm wide, 540mm deep, cabinet height 830mm, height from cabinet top to top of mirror 890mm.
Has some borer. I am reluctant to use chemicals so I am finding it a new home.

Price: $120

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
