Full Specifications

What Is a Sideboard?

A sideboard is a low, wide storage cabinet designed specifically for dining rooms, typically measuring 30-40 inches in height and featuring doors, drawers, or a combination of both. Also known as a buffet or credenza, a sideboard provides essential storage for dinnerware, linens, and serving pieces while offering a surface for displaying decorative items or serving food during meals. Unlike a console table, which is primarily decorative, a sideboard prioritizes enclosed storage capacity. Best for dining rooms where you need to keep everyday dishes accessible but out of sight, sideboards work particularly well in homes where the dining room pulls double duty as a workspace or homework station.

What You Get With the Sarreid Lionisio Buffet 75" Cortina with Wood Doors

1. Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. This 75-inch buffet comes ready to place in your dining room, saving you hours of assembly time and eliminating the risk of missing hardware or unclear instructions that plague flat-pack furniture.
2. Hand-Distressed Recycled Wood Construction -- The authentic weathered look comes from genuine wear patterns, not factory-applied distressing techniques. This recycled wood approach means each piece has unique character marks and grain patterns that can't be replicated in new lumber, giving your dining room genuine farmhouse authenticity.
3. Four Recessed Panel Wood Doors with Bin Pulls -- Traditional farmhouse door styling with practical metal bin pulls that won't snag clothing or catch dish towels. The recessed panels add visual depth while the four-door configuration lets you organize storage by category -- everyday dishes in one section, special occasion pieces in another.
4. Two Adjustable Interior Shelves -- Customize the internal space to fit everything from dinner plates to serving platters. Adjustable shelving means you can accommodate tall items like vases or wine bottles in one section while keeping shorter items organized in another, maximizing the 75-inch width.
5. Cortina White Finish -- A soft, creamy white that reads warmer than stark white but cleaner than off-white. This finish works with both warm wood dining tables and cooler metal accents, making it versatile enough for evolving decor schemes while maintaining that cottage-fresh look.
6. 15-Inch Depth for Narrow Dining Rooms -- Provides substantial storage without protruding too far into walkways. This depth accommodates standard dinner plates and serving dishes while leaving enough clearance behind dining chairs, essential in dining rooms where space is at a premium.
7. 37-Inch Height for Display and Function -- Ideal height for both storage access and surface display. At 37 inches, you can comfortably reach items stored inside while the top surface works perfectly for table lamps, seasonal decor, or serving pieces during dinner parties.
8. Enclosed Storage Design -- Keeps dining essentials dust-free and visually organized. Unlike open shelving that requires constant maintenance to look tidy, enclosed storage lets you stash everything from placemats to electronics chargers behind closed doors.

What Size Sideboard Do I Need for My Dining Room?

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, but this 75-inch Lionisio buffet works perfectly with dining tables that are 108 inches (9 feet) or longer. Standard sideboard height runs 30-36 inches, and this piece at 37 inches hits the sweet spot for both storage access and display surface functionality. The 15-inch depth fits comfortably in dining rooms where chairs need to pull out 24-30 inches from the table.

This 75-inch width provides enough storage for a household of 6-8 people's everyday dinnerware, plus seasonal pieces and entertaining essentials. For secondary placements, the 15-inch depth makes it suitable for entryway use in homes with wider hallways, though it may be too wide for most living room applications. The height works well as a home office credenza if you need filing storage behind a residential aesthetic.

How to Style the Lionisio Buffet in Your Farmhouse Dining Room

Position this buffet on the longest wall of your dining room, typically opposite the main seating area or centered behind the dining table if you have a long rectangular room. The Cortina white finish pairs beautifully with warm wood dining tables in walnut, oak, or pine, creating the layered neutral palette that defines modern farmhouse style. Leave at least 36 inches between the buffet and your dining table to allow comfortable chair movement.

On top, create visual interest with varying heights -- try a pair of 26-28 inch table lamps on either end, a centered piece like a wooden tray or vintage scale, and fresh greenery or seasonal decor. The hand-distressed wood finish can handle the wear of daily use, so don't hesitate to use the surface for serving during dinner parties. Inside, dedicate one section to everyday dishes, another to linens and placemats, and use the remaining space for serving pieces or small appliances you want accessible but hidden.

For flooring, this piece looks stunning on wide-plank hardwood or luxury vinyl plank, but also works well with natural fiber rugs in jute or sisal. Consider a large area rug (minimum 8x10 feet) that extends under both the dining table and buffet to unify the space. Complete the look with Windsor or ladder-back dining chairs and a large farmhouse mirror hung above the buffet to reflect light and expand the room visually.

Ideal for growing families furnishing a formal or eat-in dining room who need storage that looks intentional rather than utilitarian -- the farmhouse styling reads as furniture, not storage equipment. Interior designers specifying cottage or transitional pieces for residential projects will appreciate the authentic distressed finish and substantial proportions that photograph well in staged spaces. Well-suited for boutique bed-and-breakfasts or vacation rental dining areas seeking storage that doubles as decor -- the white finish hides wear while the recycled wood construction withstands commercial use better than veneer alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What dining table size does this 75-inch sideboard work with?

Following the 2/3 rule, this buffet pairs perfectly with dining tables 108 inches (9 feet) or longer. It works well with large rectangular farmhouse tables that seat 8-12 people, providing proportional storage for the amount of dinnerware and serving pieces you'll need for that size gathering.

Is this solid wood or veneer construction?

This buffet uses recycled wood construction with hand-distressed finishing for authentic character. At this price point, you typically find MDF with wood veneer, but the recycled wood approach offers superior durability and genuine aging patterns that improve with use rather than showing wear like manufactured finishes.

Does this arrive assembled or require assembly?

This sideboard arrives fully assembled -- no tools, hardware, or setup time required. Simply unpack and position in your dining room, which is a significant advantage over flat-pack alternatives that can take 2-4 hours to assemble correctly.

Is there a trade or designer discount available?

Yes, LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off retail with no minimum order requirement. Approval takes 1-2 business days, and trade pricing automatically applies at login -- no coupon codes needed.

What is LOOMLAN's return policy for this sideboard?

LOOMLAN offers a comprehensive return policy detailed at loomlan.com/pages/returns. Given the size and weight of this 75-inch buffet, we recommend reviewing the specific return logistics before purchase.

Can this sideboard work as a TV stand?

While the 75-inch width could theoretically support a large TV, the 37-inch height may be too tall for comfortable viewing in most living room layouts. Additionally, this piece lacks cable management features, and the enclosed door design doesn't provide ventilation for electronics components.

How does this compare to similar farmhouse sideboards from West Elm or CB2?

Unlike mass-market retailers that typically use MDF construction with printed wood-grain finishes, this Sarreid piece features genuine recycled wood with hand-distressed character. The fully-assembled delivery also eliminates the 3-4 hour assembly time common with flat-pack furniture. LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off versus CB2's 25% trade discount with a $1,000 minimum order.

What's the storage capacity inside this buffet?

With four door compartments and two adjustable shelves, this buffet can accommodate full dinnerware sets for 8-12 people, including dinner plates, salad plates, bowls, and serving pieces. The 15-inch depth fits standard dinner plates with room for stacking, while the adjustable shelves let you customize space for tall items like pitchers or small appliances.
