Copany Solid Tauari Wooden Sideboard

Brazilian hardwood furniture that looks like it was built for high-end hotels but actually fits standard American dining rooms is hard to find -- most imported pieces either look too commercial or use veneers that chip after a few years. The Urbia Copany Sideboard is a 71-inch Contemporary four-door credenza built with 50% solid Tauari wood construction for dining rooms that need substantial storage without sacrificing sophisticated style, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping to the continental US. This sideboard combines the warm character of Brazilian hardwood with high-gloss lacquer doors in your choice of matte black, walnut nogal, or off-white finishes. Unlike mass-market sideboards that rely heavily on engineered wood, the Copany uses solid Tauari wood for the frame and sled base, providing the durability you'd expect from handcrafted Brazilian furniture at a price point that makes sense for residential use.

Understanding Sideboards vs. Credenzas

A sideboard is a low, wide storage cabinet designed primarily for dining rooms to store dishes, linens, and serve food during meals. Unlike a console table which is purely decorative, a sideboard provides enclosed storage with doors and drawers for hiding everyday dining essentials. Also known as a buffet or credenza, sideboards typically range from 30-36 inches in height and 48-84 inches in width. Best for dining rooms that need both storage and a surface for serving food or displaying decorative objects during dinner parties.

Brazilian Craftsmanship Meets Contemporary Design

1. Solid Tauari Wood Construction -- Made with 50% solid Tauari wood, a Brazilian hardwood known for its light color and fine grain pattern. This is significantly more durable than the engineered wood or veneer construction found in most sideboards under $2,000.
2. Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. Ready to place and use immediately. At 133 pounds, this sideboard has the substantial feel of custom millwork without the assembly hassle.
3. Four-Door Organization System -- Four hinged doors with high-gloss lacquer finish provide access to spacious interior storage. The door configuration allows you to organize dishes separately from linens or bar supplies.
4. Central Drawer with Ball-Bearing Glides -- One drawer with ball-bearing glides and stoppers provides easy access to silverware, serving utensils, and other dining essentials. The smooth action and full-extension design makes it ideal for frequently used items.
5. Two Interior Shelves -- Adjustable shelving inside accommodates everything from dinner plates to serving platters. The shelves can be configured to fit your specific storage needs.
6. Brazilian Sled Base Design -- The solid Tauari sled base provides visual lightness while maintaining structural integrity. At 3 inches of floor clearance, it's easy to clean underneath and creates a floating appearance despite the sideboard's substantial 133-pound weight.
7. High-Gloss Lacquer Doors -- The lacquered door surfaces resist scratches and water rings better than painted wood finishes. Easy to clean with just a damp cloth, making it practical for busy dining rooms.
8. Three Finish Combinations -- Choose between black with walnut nogal, off-white with walnut nogal, or off-white with nevoa accents. Each combination pairs the solid Tauari wood base with coordinating lacquer door finishes.

Sizing Your Dining Room for a 71-Inch Sideboard

The rule is your sideboard should be no more than 2/3 the length of your dining table. For a 72-inch table, that means a sideboard up to 48 inches wide works perfectly -- but the Copany's 71-inch width (180 cm) works best with tables 90 inches or longer. Standard sideboard height runs 30-36 inches, and the Copany's 31.5-inch height puts the serving surface at the ideal level for buffet service. At 17.5 inches deep (44 cm), it fits against most dining room walls without blocking walkways. For rooms smaller than 12 x 14 feet, this sideboard may overwhelm the space -- consider your ceiling height and overall room proportions. In large, open-plan homes, the Copany's substantial presence actually helps anchor a dining area within a great room layout.

Styling the Copany in Different Room Settings

Position this sideboard against the longest wall in your dining room, leaving at least 36 inches of clearance for chair pull-out and serving access. The 31.5-inch height makes it perfect for table lamps -- use a pair of 24-26 inch tall lamps to create balanced lighting. The top surface accommodates a 60-inch console table runner with room for decorative objects on either end. Inside storage works well for china, glassware, table linens, and bar supplies. The drawer is perfect for silverware, serving pieces, and cloth napkins you use regularly.

For rug pairing, choose a minimum 9 x 12 foot rug in dining rooms, ensuring the sideboard sits entirely on the rug with the dining table and chairs. This sideboard also works as a media console in large living rooms -- the 71-inch width supports TVs up to 75 inches, and the enclosed storage hides cable boxes and gaming consoles. Consider pairing with upholstered dining chairs and statement lighting to complete the sophisticated Brazilian-inspired aesthetic.

Ideal for established homeowners furnishing a formal dining room who need substantial storage without sacrificing style. Interior designers specifying Contemporary pieces for residential projects will appreciate the solid hardwood construction and LOOMLAN's 40% trade discount with no minimum order. Well-suited for boutique hotels and upscale vacation rental properties seeking furniture that handles commercial use while maintaining residential sophistication.

Product Questions and Answers

Will this sideboard fit in a standard dining room?

The Copany measures 71 inches wide, so you need at least 75 inches of clear wall space. It works best in dining rooms 14 feet or longer. The 17.5-inch depth fits against most walls without blocking walkways, and the 31.5-inch height is standard for dining room sideboards.

How does the solid Tauari wood construction compare to other sideboards in this price range?

At this price point, you get 50% solid hardwood construction typically found in pieces costing significantly more. Most sideboards under $2,000 use primarily engineered wood or veneer over particleboard. The solid Tauari wood frame and base provide superior durability and the authentic feel of custom millwork.

Does this require assembly?

No assembly required. The Copany arrives fully assembled and ready to use immediately. At 133 pounds, delivery typically requires two people for placement in your dining room.

What's LOOMLAN's return policy if this doesn't work in my space?

LOOMLAN offers a comprehensive return policy detailed at loomlan.com/pages/returns. Given the substantial size and weight, we recommend confirming dimensions and clearances before ordering.

Can this work as a TV stand in a living room?

Yes, the 71-inch width supports TVs up to 75 inches, and the enclosed storage is perfect for hiding media components. The solid construction handles the weight of large TVs, and the high-gloss lacquer doors keep the look sophisticated rather than utilitarian.

How does this compare to similar sideboards at West Elm or Article?
