What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a low, wide storage cabinet traditionally placed in dining rooms to hold serving dishes, linens, and tableware, though modern use extends to living rooms and entryways for media equipment or decor. Also called a buffet cabinet, the sideboard typically stands 30-36 inches high, distinguishing it from taller hutches or shorter credenzas.
What You Get With the Furniture Classics Odella Sideboard
- Reclaimed Elm Wood Construction -- sustainable material with natural grain variations and history in every board.
- 84-Inch Width on 16-Inch Depth -- ideal proportions for narrow spaces where you need long storage without room intrusion.
- Puzzle-Like Geometric Door Fronts -- interlocking patterns form a functional latching system that doubles as visual artistry.
- Natural Brown Finish -- rustic patina complements both modern and traditional interiors without overwhelming color.
- Two-Door Cabinet Storage -- ample concealed space keeps dining essentials or media components organized and dust-free.
- 124-Pound Solid Build -- reclaimed elm density ensures stability and multi-generational durability.
Where Should You Place a Sideboard Buffet?
Position the Odella behind a dining table as a serving station for entertaining, or float it in a living room beneath wall art to ground a seating area. Its 16-inch depth fits hallways and narrow walls where deeper credenzas won't work, while the 84-inch length anchors large spaces. Pair with pieces from the sideboards and credenzas collection or solid wood hand-carved sideboards for layered storage, and complement with lighting from the dining room furniture and living room furniture collections.
