Glass-front storage cabinets occupy a unique space in furniture -- they need to be substantial enough for serious storage yet elegant enough to display your best pieces behind those transparent doors. The Mercana Suri Three Drawers Wood Sideboard is an 80-inch Contemporary solid mango wood credenza built for dining rooms that need both hidden storage and display space, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping to the continental US. This handcrafted piece solves the common problem of finding storage that's both functional and show-worthy, with four clear glass doors revealing what's inside while three drawers keep less photogenic items tucked away. The light brown mango wood finish brings warmth without overwhelming a space, and the gently sandblasted texture adds tactile interest that you won't find in mass-produced alternatives. With solid brass hardware and 36 inches of height, it's sized to work as both dining room storage and living room media display -- a flexibility that makes it worth the investment for homes where every piece needs to earn its place.
What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a low, wide storage cabinet traditionally used in dining rooms for storing dishes, linens, and serving pieces while providing a surface for food presentation during meals. Unlike a console table, a sideboard includes enclosed storage with doors and drawers rather than just open shelving. Also known as a credenza or buffet cabinet, modern sideboards often feature glass doors for display purposes. Best for dining rooms that need both practical storage and an elegant surface for entertaining, sideboards typically measure 30-36 inches in height and 60-80 inches in width.
What You Get With the Mercana Suri Three Drawers Wood Sideboard
- Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. Ready to place and use immediately, which eliminates the frustration of complex furniture assembly and ensures professional construction quality throughout.
- Four Clear Glass Doors -- Display your finest dishware, glassware, or collectibles while keeping them dust-free. The transparent panels create visual lightness in a room while still providing enclosed storage protection.
- Three Deep Drawers -- Perfect for storing table linens, serving utensils, and other dining essentials that you want hidden from view. The drawer construction provides easy access to frequently used items.
- Three Removable Shelves -- Customize the interior space to fit your exact storage needs. Remove shelves to accommodate taller items or keep them in place for organized smaller pieces.
- Solid Mango Wood Construction -- Built from genuine hardwood rather than veneer or engineered wood. Mango wood is naturally durable and develops character over time, making this a buy-once piece.
- Handmade Solid Brass Knobs -- Each hardware piece is individually crafted, not mass-produced. Brass develops a natural patina over time and coordinates beautifully with both warm and cool color palettes.
- Gently Sandblasted Texture -- The surface treatment adds subtle tactile interest and helps hide minor scratches or wear that naturally occur with daily use. This finish technique is labor-intensive and adds to the handcrafted quality.
- 80-Inch Width -- Substantial enough to anchor a large dining room yet not overwhelming in scale. Provides ample surface space for serving dishes, table lamps, or decorative displays.
What Size Sideboard Do I Need for My Dining Room?
The rule is your sideboard should be no more than 2/3 the length of your dining table. For a 120-inch table (seats 10-12), this 80-inch Suri sideboard hits the ideal proportion. For smaller tables, it creates a statement piece that anchors the room. Standard sideboard height runs 30-36 inches -- this piece at 36 inches (91 cm) provides comfortable serving height and visual weight. The 18-inch depth (46 cm) keeps the footprint manageable while providing serious storage capacity. In room planning, allow at least 36 inches of walking space behind chairs when they're pulled out, plus 6-12 inches between the sideboard and wall for easy door access. The glass doors need clearance to open fully, so factor that into your layout. This size works in dining rooms 12x12 feet or larger, but can also serve as a media console in living rooms with high ceilings where the 36-inch height won't block sightlines.
How to Style the Mercana Suri Sideboard in Your Dining Room
Position this sideboard against the longest wall in your dining room, ideally opposite the main entrance so it becomes a focal point. The four glass doors create natural display zones -- use the center sections for your best dishware or glassware collections, keeping similar pieces grouped together. Top styling should balance height and visual weight: try a pair of matching table lamps on either end with a large piece of artwork or mirror centered above. Between the lamps, add height variation with a tall vase, small plants, or decorative objects. Inside the glass compartments, arrange pieces by color or style for maximum impact -- white dishes pop against the light brown interior, while colored glassware creates jewel-tone accents.
The three drawers handle all the less photogenic necessities: table linens, serving utensils, candles, and placemats. Consider drawer organizers to keep small items tidy. This piece also cross-functions beautifully as a living room media console -- the 80-inch width accommodates TVs up to 85 inches, while the glass doors showcase books, media components, or decorative objects. In a living room setting, pair with complementary accent chairs and anchor with an area rug that extends at least 18 inches beyond each side of the sideboard.
Ideal for established homeowners furnishing a formal dining room who need substantial storage that doesn't sacrifice style. Interior designers specifying organic modern dining rooms will appreciate the solid mango wood construction and handcrafted brass details, plus LOOMLAN's up to 40% trade discount with no minimum order. Well-suited for boutique hotel dining areas and vacation rental properties seeking furniture that looks custom but ships fully assembled and handles commercial use.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How wide is this sideboard and what dining table size does it work with?
- The Suri sideboard measures 80 inches wide (203 cm). It pairs perfectly with dining tables 108-120 inches long (seats 8-12 people) following the 2/3 proportion rule. It can also work with smaller tables as a statement piece that anchors the room.
- Is this solid wood or veneer construction?
- This is solid mango wood construction throughout, not veneer over particleboard. At this price point, you get handcrafted solid wood construction typically found in pieces costing significantly more from mainstream retailers. The solid wood will age beautifully and can be refinished if needed years down the road, unlike veneer pieces.
- Does this require assembly?
- No assembly required -- this sideboard ships fully assembled and ready to place. You'll need two people to move it due to the solid wood construction and 80-inch width, but there's no setup time or tools needed.
- Can I get trade pricing on this sideboard?
- Yes, LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off retail with no minimum order and 1-2 day approval. This is more generous than most competitors -- Crate & Barrel Trade offers 25% with a $1,000 minimum, while Arhaus requires $2,500 minimums for 30% off.
- What's LOOMLAN's return policy?
- Full details at loomlan.com/pages/returns. Given the size and fully-assembled shipping of this piece, we recommend confirming dimensions and reviewing the photos carefully before ordering.
- Can this work as a TV stand?
- Yes, the 80-inch width and 36-inch height work well for TVs up to 85 inches. The glass doors let you display media components while the drawers hide remotes and cables. The height provides comfortable viewing from standard sofas.
- How does this compare to similar pieces at West Elm or CB2?
- Those retailers typically offer veneer construction that requires assembly, while this Mercana piece is solid wood and ships fully assembled. The handcrafted brass hardware and sandblasted texture are details you won't find in mass-market alternatives. LOOMLAN also offers better trade pricing than CB2's 25% program.
