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.

Ejiao (阿胶) — a traditional Chinese medicinal product made from donkey-hide gelatin — has been revered for centuries across Asia for its purported ability to boost energy, nourish blood, and promote overall vitality, especially among women. Now, this ancient tonic is starting to gain traction in New Zealand’s wellness and natural health circles, particularly among those interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), alternative therapies, and holistic living.
In Aotearoa, where the demand for natural supplements and Eastern wellness philosophies continues to grow, Ejiao is increasingly found in TCM clinics, Asian herbal shops, and even among curious Kiwi consumers exploring herbal tonics for energy, hormonal balance, or skin rejuvenation.
While Ejiao is traditionally consumed as a tonic jelly, boiled with rice wine and herbs, it is now also available in modern capsule or powder form, offering flexibility for New Zealanders new to the practice. Some Kiwi naturopaths and integrative doctors are beginning to explore how traditional remedies like Ejiao could complement local herbal approaches, especially for menstrual health, postpartum recovery, and anti-aging support.
However, it's important to note that ethical sourcing and sustainability remain important topics in New Zealand’s natural health landscape. Discussions around animal welfare, conservation, and plant-based alternatives are ongoing as Kiwis weigh the benefits of ancient remedies against modern values.
If you're exploring Chinese medicine in Aotearoa, Ejiao represents a fascinating — and controversial — intersection of history, health, and ethical complexity.
