Why Choose This Mahogany Sideboard from Sideboards and Things?
Standing 32.5 inches tall, the Richmond provides a comfortable serving height while its 18-inch depth leaves ample floor space in narrower dining rooms or hallways. Four generous drawers offer concealed storage for flatware, napkins, and table linens, while the woven raffia lower shelf adds texture and holds decorative baskets or books. Pair it with other credenzas and sideboards in a dining room for layered storage, or use it alone in an entryway alongside a mirror for a welcoming first impression -- explore more ideas in our guide to antique-inspired sideboards.
