At nearly 7 feet wide and weighing 140 pounds, this Contemporary credenza commands attention while providing enclosed storage behind four hinged doors.

What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a long, low storage cabinet designed primarily for dining rooms, featuring doors or drawers for storing dinnerware, linens, and serving pieces. Unlike a console table which is typically open and decorative, a sideboard offers enclosed storage and serves as both a functional storage solution and a serving surface during meals.
What You Get With the NOIR Furniture Holden Sideboard
- 82-Inch Width for Large Dining Tables -- Specifically proportioned for dining tables that seat 8-10 people, matching the scale of substantial dining rooms where most sideboards fall short.
- Four Hinged Door Storage System -- Each door opens on quality hinges to reveal enclosed storage compartments, allowing you to organize china, linens, and serving pieces in separate sections.
- Walnut and Veneer Construction -- NOIR combines solid walnut elements with walnut veneer to achieve rich walnut brown coloring throughout while maintaining structural stability at this length.
- Tapered Leg Design -- Raises the cabinet off the floor on angled legs that create visual lightness despite the piece's substantial 140-pound footprint.
- Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required; this sideboard ships ready to place and use immediately.
Where Should You Place an 82-Inch Sideboard?
This walnut brown sideboard works best in dining rooms with tables 84 inches or longer, where its 82-inch width creates proportional balance. The 22-inch depth fits against most dining room walls without protruding into walkways, while the 30-inch height provides ideal serving surface clearance. Pair with other solid wood sideboards or place in open-concept living room spaces as a room divider with storage.
