What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a long, low storage cabinet typically placed against a dining room wall to hold dishes, serving pieces, and linens. Also known as a buffet cabinet or credenza, sideboards originated in 18th-century dining rooms where they served meals buffet-style. Unlike a console table, which is primarily decorative, a sideboard offers substantial enclosed storage with doors and often drawers.
What You Get With the Sarreid Nido Natural Wood Sideboard
- Four Handwoven Rattan Door Panels -- Each door features traditional basket-weave rattan that adds texture and allows subtle ventilation for linens.
- Reclaimed Oak Wood Construction -- The cabinet frame uses genuine reclaimed oak with unique character marks, nail holes, and grain variations from its previous life.
- Arrives Fully Assembled -- At 147 pounds, this substantial piece ships completely built and ready to place with no tools or hardware sorting required.
- 85-Inch Width for Large Dining Tables -- Following the 2/3 rule, this sideboard pairs perfectly with 10-12 foot dining tables and provides ample surface space for serving.
How Do You Style a Rattan Sideboard in a Dining Room?
Place the Nido sideboard against your largest dining room wall, centered behind the table or offset to one side if you have a buffet-style layout. Pair it with solid wood sideboards or coordinate with dining room furniture in complementary finishes to create a cohesive French Country aesthetic.
