Watch as tradition meets innovation in this bold blacksmithing experiment: adding a Damascus steel edge to an axe using an unconventional approach. This isn’t your typical forge-weld—it's a creative blend of technique, timing, and raw craftsmanship. From layered steel patterns to precise fitting, this process transforms an ordinary axe into a functional piece of art. Whether you're into bladesmithing or just love watching metal come alive, this is a must-see moment of forging outside the box.

The horse bench (马儿板凳) — a small, handcrafted wooden bench shaped like a miniature horse — is a charming staple of traditional Chinese furniture. Once common in rural households across China, these benches were used by children, elders, or even in farming communities for resting, working, or socialising. Now, this humble piece of heritage furniture is finding new relevance in New Zealand's interior design and antique appreciation communities.

In Aotearoa, where craftsmanship, sustainability, and cultural fusion are highly valued, the 马儿板凳 is increasingly viewed as a functional art piece. Whether placed in a minimalist Wellington loft, a rustic Queenstown cabin, or as a conversation starter in a boutique Auckland design store, the bench bridges cultures and eras with its simple elegance and cultural storytelling.

New Zealand collectors, stylists, and even early childhood educators are showing interest in such heirloom objects that reflect slower living, storytelling through design, and multicultural appreciation. With New Zealand’s growing connections to Asian cultures through migration, education, and travel, the horse bench is part of a broader movement toward decor that’s meaningful, handmade, and rooted in tradition.

As Kiwis increasingly seek unique furniture pieces that carry depth and cultural legacy, the 马儿板凳 is no longer just a bench — it's a symbol of cross-cultural respect, historic preservation, and timeless design sensibility.
