FRENCH STYLE 3-4 SEATER SOFA & ARMCHAIR carved & metal studs needs re-upholst.

Jan from Nelson South

FRENCH STYLE 3-4 SEATER SOFA & ARMCHAIR carved legs & metal studs [needs re-upholstering]

Purchased in Europe, but now relegated to the garage. Rescue this lovely suite and breathe new life into it. Hence some photos are of the whole lounge and others taken in storage.

Comfortable to sit, lounge or lie on, it has been used as a spare bed when needed as well. The first image of the lounge, shows the edge of the lounge suite, but without its cushions for some odd reason. They are available as well and included in the price.

Measurements:
Chair: H 82cm; W 75cm; D 80cm
Sofa: L 2metres; D 80cm; H 82cm. 3 cushions, widths are 52cm at each end and 62cm in the middle.

Elegantly restrained carved legs. Good for a shabby chic finish or french provincial interior.

Interior upholstery still in good condition, made with durable materials, but the velour on the fabric has worn off. The base fabric is still strong and sturdy. The upholstery is a draylon or man made equivalent to look like velvet. The armchair is in better condition. The fabric is threadbare along the back top of the sofa and on the arm. There is a dark stain on the inside of one arm. We don't smoke but had a lap dog at the time. It doesn't smell.

Pick up in central Nelson at the top of Collingwood St.

Price: $330

Secure your homes over summer

The Team from New Zealand Police

Police are reminding people to keep their homes secure during the summer months.

Inspector Glenda Barnaby, Christchurch Area Prevention manager, says daytime burglaries are just as common as nightime burglaries.
“Burglaries can be committed at any time of the day, and coming into warmer months there is more opportunity for thieves."
"Although a majority of burglaries involve forced entry through windows and doors, we are starting to see more incidents at insecure premises. Police deal with cases where burglaries are committed in broad daylight, sometimes even while the victim is at home. Good weather means open doors and windows, which makes homes more vulnerable to burglars.”

Inspector Barnaby says there’s a few things people can do to reduce their changes of a burglary being committed.
⚠️ If you’re going outside for gardening, relaxing in the sun, or working in the garage, take a moment to lock your doors and secure your windows first.
⚠️ Do the same at night when you go to bed - keep your doors and windows secure and close your curtains. Fitting window stays means you can get a breeze coming through, while keeping your windows secure.
⚠️ Get to know your neighbours - let them know if you’re going away and look out for one another.”

If you see any suspicious activity, people or vehicles in your neighbourhood, don't hesitate to contact Police.
If you witness or suspect any illegal activity, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report through 105 either online or over the phone, if it is after the fact.
