Walnut Sideboards

Walnut sideboards for the dining room

A walnut sideboard is a low storage cabinet that lines a dining room wall and holds dishes, linens, and serving pieces, and the walnut finish is what ties this group together. The warm brown tone brings wood grain into a room without the weight of a dark stain, and it pairs with both light and dark tables. At Two Seventy Nine, walnut sideboards start at $265.

The styles cover several looks in the same finish. Fluted fronts with vertical grooves are common, along with carved and geometric doors, arched panels, tambour sliding doors, a rattan-front cabinet, and mid-century credenzas on tapered legs. A few are built with a solid wood frame, and the rest carry the walnut finish over an engineered wood case.

Storage is the focus. Four doors is the standard buffet layout, the compact credenzas run two doors, and there is a tall two-door pantry that stacks shelves upward for a small kitchen. Behind the doors are adjustable shelves, several models add drawers across the top, and the push-to-open and TV-stand versions keep the front smooth with an open media shelf.

Sizes range from about 31 inches wide on a small credenza up to 65 inches on a long buffet, with the tall pantry standing 63 inches high on a 31-inch footprint. Standard buffets sit near 29 to 33 inches tall and 14 to 16 inches deep, while the TV consoles drop to about 24 inches. That spread suits a dining room, a media wall, or a narrow kitchen corner.

If you want the warmth of walnut on a storage piece that works as a buffet, a credenza, or a pantry, this group has the range, starting at $265. Every order ships free with delivery in 5 to 7 days.
