Single Bed Solid Oak frames with slats

Emma from Mount Eden

These lovely old (1950’s) matching pair of solid oak bed frames are delightful. Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style.

Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style. Excellent condition and they are made from solid wood and with heavy steel runners.
We had them for our kids and now they’re grown up, so no need anymore. We made the slats ourselves from old decking wood (these would originally have had wire sprung bases attached to the steel runners) and the slats worked well. All that’s needed is a mattress on the top. (We have 1 very old mattress available, which if you want you can have for free).

Prefer to sell as pair for $100 but would consider selling separately for $65 each.

Approx. Dimensions (inside)
910 mm Width
1900 mm Length

Pick up in Mount Eden. They are dismantled now, so easy to transport in a car.

Strengthening work planned for Auckland Domain's Wintergarden

Both glasshouses will have steel ties installed internally with new laminated glass and stronger code compliant aluminium glazing bars placed on the roofs.

Expected to take 18 months, the work will boost post tension strengthening work of the Tropical House chimney stack in 2003.

Auckland Domain Committee chair and Auckland councillor Desley Simpson said only one glasshouse would be worked on at a time so Aucklanders could still take in the beauty of the exotic plants.

“It is great to be able to not just allow Aucklanders to enjoy the Wintergardens as they were first intended, but also to make improvements, so that they will cope better with the challenges of seismic and climate change risks.

"It is about being faithful to the heritage of the buildings and finding sympathetic solutions to deal with these risks.”

The renovations will see the timber joinery repaired and repainted.

They include installing larger gutters and additional rainwater pipes as well as changing the roofs' opaque glass to the original design of clear glass.

Gold Dust

I held for a moment in time
A sprinkle of gold dust in my hand
Pure in form and heart
A little piece of me, soon to journey this land

I held for a moment in time
A sprinkle of gold dust in my hand
Pure in form and heart
A little piece of me, soon to journey this land

Time has passed quickly
Her gold dust has started to spread
And lately, not that long ago
She started plans to leave the nest

I held for a moment in time
A sprinkle of gold dust in my hand
And now as I blow it gently off
I give credit to my parents, because now I understand.
