Curio Noir Candles

One of our first things that we want to do when it’s cold and dark is to light a beautiful scented candle. Ex Ryder staff-member Tiffany Jeans has created a bespoke candle range that has an old -worldy look to it using skulls and dolls heads. They are very fragrant and have a long burn-time.
Your quest to find that curio that you didn’t know that you really needed ends here.
Available at Simon James, The Department Store, Takapuna.

Nicholas Macaulay and his Ferrari 412

We think that Nicholas Macaulay must be the coolest man in Auckland. Why? Because this guy drives a 1987  Ferrari 412. It has been his dream car since like, well forever. So recently, one came up for sale and Nic,  after some deliberation decided to buy it.

The Ferrari 412 is a front engined 5 litre V12 2+2 coupe’ designed by the famed Pininfarina.   Only 576 were produced between 1985 and 1989. Finished in a deep blue exterior and a tan leather interior, Nic’s one is a mint example. Think about it, the guy drives up to the dairy in a Ferrari!  That’s cool.
