Yes, the piece includes its original wrought iron hinges and the original key. Both are in working order, allowing the doors to open and secure properly.
To maintain the integrity of the natural fibers, keep the sideboard away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture. Dusting with a soft, dry cloth is sufficient for regular maintenance.
The triangular bamboo legs provide a sturdy base for the sideboard. While stable on most flat surfaces, we recommend using felt pads if placing the piece on hardwood floors to prevent scratching.
At 71 inches wide and 35.25 inches high, this is a substantial piece that functions well as a focal point in a dining room or a long console in a living area. Be sure to measure your wall space to ensure the 20-inch depth fits comfortably within your room's flow.
