Traditional furniture polish
At SR&R we specialise in restoring and repairing solid timber furniture. Our timber care products are a result of our drive for the very best in wooden furniture maintenance an restoration. Every SR&R timber care product has been developed by our woodwork restoration team and is made by us in New Zealand.
Our Cedarwood and Beeswax furniture polish is a traditional polish recipe with no thinners, polyurethanes or chemicals of any sort. It is simply coconut oil from a local wholesaler, beeswax from a local beekeeper and some essential oils (including Himalayan cedar wood oil). These ingredients are mixed in the perfect ratio for conditioning and polishing your timber furniture. (The ratios and what the oils are - that's a secret sorry)
Before we get into the usage instructions, please remember the cardinal rule of all furniture care treatments - spot check in an inconspicuous place first!
To use, simply scoop some polish on to a soft lint-free cloth and rub the wax into the timber in the direction of the grain. Leave to condition the wood for 3-4 minutes (longer if the wood is very old and dry) and the buff off the residue with a second, clean lint-free cloth. For pieces of furniture with a large build up of dirt or where the existing polish is in bad shape, you can use 0000 steel wool for the application step.
One more thing to note - this is not a penetrating or seasoning wax. Cedarwood & Beeswax Furniture Polish is best used on pieces of furniture with an existing finish.
Listing is for 1 x 135g (+-) pot of SR&R Cedarwood & Beeswax Furniture Polish.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Boundaries of Adaptation - An exhibition by Nina Bulgakova
Boundaries of Adaptation
An exhibition by Nina Bulgakova
28 February - 18 March
Community Gallery Space - Franklin Arts Centre
Opening Event: Saturday 28 February, 10am
Adaptation is often understood as the ability to adjust to an environment, to accept its conditions and become less visible within it. In this body of work, the focus shifts to a different moment, the point at which adaptation reaches its limit and begins to form a boundary.
This boundary is not a gesture of refusal or isolation. It appears as a need to define how interaction with the outside world takes place. Not to shut it out, but to stay in contact while maintaining a sense of stability. Here, the boundary is not an opposition, but a way of reaching agreement.
The works take the form of wall-mounted sculptural objects, where the boundary becomes material and physically present. Within these objects, it is expressed through weight, density, surface, and tension of form, shifting from an abstract idea into a direct experience.
