3x Scandinavian Dining Chairs

Andrew from Mount Roskill

Purchased approximately 7 years ago with an opportune find at a op-shop, these were previously upholstered in a lovely pale pink fabric.

At the time of purchase I reupholstered them with the sage green canvas material and sanded and restored the timber. I’ve always been unsure of the timber but did think it was teak for a while so used oil suitable for that.

Although three chairs is an odd number, these go well with other chairs, either around a similar era round or rectangular table.

One of the chairs had had a hasty repair job which has resulted in scratches (as pictured in the last photos). This is easily fixed with a new piece of timber and screws. This needs to happen before I’d deem it a useable chair.

Selling to make room, and we haven’t been using them. They’ve been in a dry basement for a year or so and have been cleaned recently with a damp cloth.

Dimensions
510w 500d 800h, 450h to seat

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

Are you for, or against?

Freehold, renovated, future potential

Swechha from Mount Roskill

Hi everyone, we thought we’d share this here in case you, or someone you know, is looking for a lovely 2-bedroom freehold home in Blockhouse Bay. This has been our investment property for many years, and we’ve recently put a lot of care into preparing it for its next owners, including a brand-new kitchen, new flooring, and fresh paint inside and out. Set on a freehold section of around 560m², it offers a generous lawn, a new veggie garden, and future potential to add a cabin or sleepout. We truly hope it becomes a place where new memories are made.

For viewings, please contact Piyush and Manali Setia at Ray White Blockhouse Bay - 021 2363 854:
