CHAIRMAN MAO CLOCK
Current bid $40, Closes Tuesday
It’s always time for a permanent agrarian revolution!
1970S MOON BOOTS
Current bid $40, Closes Tuesday
An absolute disaster just waiting to happen. If I worked at ACC I would buy these just to destroy them and remove them from circulation.
SPHINX ASHTRAY
Current bid $80, Closes Tuesday
This deco relic is the most stylish ash tray I have ever seen. If people still smoked inside this would be the highlight of the week.
A VINTAGE SCRATCH BUILT DONATION BOX
Current bid $50, Closes Tuesday
The future of arts funding in Aotearoa.
A STATUE OF JESUS, HAND SIGNED
Current bid $40, Closes Tuesday
Huge if true.
PHILOSOPHERS STONE/GOBLET OF FIRE READ ALONG
Current bid $50, Closes Tuesday
Stephen Fry’s performance as the whole book in both of these was excellent and saw me gently off to sleep every night through a confusing period of my life in the late 1990s.
HERMÈS, BLEU ÉLECTRIQUE TADELAKT MINI VERROU CHAIN BAG
Current bid $3,600, Closes Tuesday
Fantastic.
NAPOLEONIC WARS NOTICE
Current bid $55, Closes Monday
Fun 1797 notice from Modena advising the locals they need to give up their horses for the incoming French troops. Must have been SOOOOO annoying.
5 ART IN NEW ZEALAND MAGAZINES
Current bid $10, Closes Monday
These look to be in ok condition and range from 1935-1941 so presumably absolutely rammed with regionalism but if you like your Angus, Lusk and Wollaston this could be just the thing for you.
KAURI GLAZED CABINET
Current bid $35, Closes Monday
These make quite good coffee tables if you can get them cleaned up and on short legs and set up a large terrarium inside with wee cacti and ONE weird thing, like a ring makers model hand, sticking out of the dirt.
CHAISE LOUNGE
Current bid $10, Closes Monday
Life is hard and complicated and often it’s simply too much to bear, which is where this skirted chaise lounge comes in - an absolutely perfect piece of furniture to do some high drama swooning in.
A LOUIS XIV STYLE BENCH SEAT
Current bid $300, Closes Tuesday
This is really just a chance to talk about how CHERRY LAZAR, John Key’s daughter seems to be back online and threading the trickiest needle imaginable — Marie Antoinetting as hard as she can in Europe and somehow being extremely likable at the same time.
LLADRO ‘AFRICA’
Current bid $15, Closes Monday
Problematic.
A PAIR OF RALPH LAUREN CHAIRS
Current bid $400, Closes Tuesday
Nice looking brown suede and chrome arm chairs, apparently in excellent condition. Would be ideal if you were trying to furnish the small foyer of the publishing office of your gentleman’s magazine.
LARS WENDELBO 3 SEATER
Current bid $700, Closes Tuesday.
Very low, very deep leather sofa which looks like it would be absolute murder on your posture but also so welcoming and seems perfectly broken in.
DIVIDED FIGURE COFFEE TABLE
Current bid $200, Closes Tuesday
Your occasional reminder that surrealist furniture sucks.
A LARGE FRENCH TAPESTRY
Current bid $50, Closes Tuesday
No one has these any more, presumably because of all the dusting. I feel like asking people at the end of the night if they want to come back to your place and see the tapestry has high comedic value. 700x1150mm.
