The story

For the plates, the linens and everything that needs a place near the table.

A dining room fills up with things that have no obvious home: the good plates, the table linens, candles, the serving bowls that come out twice a year. The Boissière Sideboard gives them two cabinets and three drawers, and keeps the front calm: a long run of solid acacia with five slim black lines.

Each door is framed with crisp mitred corners around a panel of vertical staves, and the drawers between them are plain. At each end, a shaped side frame turns down into two splayed legs, so the whole 63 inches stand clear of the floor and the room keeps its light.

The design

Three details that make the Boissière sideboard.

The Boissière sideboard is a long box of solid acacia on an open, splayed base. Three details give it its character.

Mitred Frames, Black Pulls

Mitred Frames, Black Pulls

Each door is a flat solid acacia frame with crisp mitred corners around a panel of vertical staves. Slim matte black edge pulls run along the tops of the two doors and the three drawers.

Two Cabinets, Three Drawers

Two Cabinets, Three Drawers

The doors open on concealed hinges onto two cabinets with one adjustable shelf each, and three drawers run on metal slides in the centre. Four splayed legs on two shaped side frames carry the case.

Will it fit?

Width 63″ 160 cm
Depth 17.7″ 45 cm
Height 31.5″ 80 cm

Planning tip. The Boissière Sideboard is 63" W x 17.7" D x 31.5" H (160 x 45 x 80 cm). Plan on a wall of at least 6 ft (about 1.8 m), and leave about 36" (90 cm) clear in front so the doors can swing open and someone can still pass behind a dining chair. At 31.5" (80 cm) high, its top sits just above a standard 30" (76 cm) dining table; hang art or a mirror about 8-10" (20-25 cm) above it.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

What is it made of?

The top, sides, doors and drawer fronts are solid acacia in a soft mid-brown finish. MDF with acacia veneer and rubberwood are also used, the pulls are matte black metal, and the plywood back is unfinished, so it is meant to stand against a wall.

What fits inside?

Each of the three drawers is 17.7" W x 13.3" D x 4" H inside (45 x 34 x 10 cm) and runs on metal slides. Each cabinet is 19.3" W x 16.3" D inside (49 x 41 cm) and about 20" (51 cm) high, with one adjustable shelf.

Is it part of a collection?

Yes. It belongs to the Boissière collection. The photos on this page show this sideboard's own soft mid-brown finish.

Is assembly required?

Yes. It arrives in one box and weighs 135.5 lb (61.5 kg), so plan on two people.
