How is a sideboard built here?
Full solid-wood casework — tops, drawer boxes, and shelves, no MDF panel hiding anywhere — with drawers and doors fitted by hand at the workshop so they close with a soft, even gap. That is why the case can be sanded and re-oiled for decades instead of replaced.
Can the interior be laid out for my use?
Each sideboard is made to order: length, interior layout, and leg height all adjust. Wine storage, plate racks, and cable openings for a media wall are common additions — send the platter or carafe measurements and we size a drawer to them.
What happens at delivery?
Sideboards arrive fully assembled — drawers fitted, nothing to bolt. Two people should carry it; photograph the crate before the driver leaves and note anything on the receipt. Once placed, the adjustable levelers square the case on an uneven floor in minutes.
How do I care for the top and drawers?
Wipe the top after serving, use trivets under hot dishes, and oil once or twice a year — ten minutes with a rag. Keep the case a couple of feet from a heat vent; the wood finished its moving in the kiln, but even stable teak prefers even conditions.
How does a sideboard travel?
Every sideboard is made to order and travels freight in a fitted crate with the interior braced. We send tracking, schedule the delivery window with you, and if transit does damage, we make it right — never sign clean for a crushed crate.
Will holiday platters and tall bottles fit inside the drawers?
The drawers are cut deep enough for stacked chargers, folded table linens, and standard serving platters. If you store tall carafes or a specific platter set, send the measurements when you order and we will size a drawer to it.
