Know before you buy
The deep wire-brushing process removes the softer grain of the European Red Oak, leaving behind a raised, textured surface. This technique highlights the natural character of the wood and provides a tactile, organic feel that is distinct from smooth, modern finishes.
The interior is an open storage space behind the four doors. It does not include drawers or adjustable shelving, allowing for maximum flexibility when storing larger dining essentials or oversized serving platters.
The chip is a cosmetic imperfection consistent with the piece's age. It can be easily addressed by a professional furniture restorer using a color-matched wood filler or a veneer patch, or left as-is to maintain the sideboard's authentic vintage character.
Yes, the sideboard comes with its original keys, which are fully functional. They allow you to securely lock the doors, adding to the piece's historical integrity and utility.
At 91 inches wide, this is a substantial piece that requires a significant wall span. Ensure your floor is level, as the block leg base provides a sturdy foundation but does not feature adjustable levelers.
