What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a horizontal storage cabinet designed for dining rooms, typically 30-36 inches high with doors, drawers, or both for storing tableware, linens, and serving pieces. Unlike a console table, a sideboard provides enclosed storage to keep items dust-free and organized while offering a substantial surface for serving food or displaying decorative pieces.
What You Get With the Mercana Darwin Four Doors Wood Sideboard
