Retro/Vintage Teak Veneer Cabinet
Price $150 OBO
Not sure on price for this, so jus took a stab at asking price. If too high let me know, I'm pretty confident BIL and sister will negotiate.
This is yet another piece of furniture that is deserving of its own passport. I have been tasked with the sale of this item as well, man I should be asking for a commission, hahaha.
Anyways, once again, my BIL has to part with another of his treasures due to lack of space (and rethinking of their storage needs) in their new home here in NZ. Don't worry he will stop crying soon enough and I reckon will start hiding his other smaller treasures.
It was originally purchased in the 90's from a retro shop by my brother-in-law when my sister and him moved to Melbourne. It was then shipped to the US when they relocated there around 2010. They then they shipped it back to NZ late last year! (Same shop and bought at same time as previous room divider listing, if you saw that one.)
This one unfortunately only has a teak veneer, but it is in excellent condition and still looks a treat. Also the veneer is actually quite thick, minimum 0.5cm on every exterior surface.
I have taken pictures to show the sill beautiful and bright veneer, as well as the underlying wood (which can be seen at the back side).
It comes with 2 shelves and the backing board, which has been removed to enable easier handling.
Measurements approx:
870mm (L) x 66mm (H) x 420mm (W)
Just make note, if this has a lot of interest then I will put up as 24hr TM auction like I did the room divider (BIL and sisters instructions).
Please ask any questions or for more pictures if required.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
33.3% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
65.6% No, I enjoy it

1% Other - I'll share below
