Italic Black Oak Sideboard - Wood

Open-plan living areas and dining rooms are where our Italic Black Oak Sideboard settles in most naturally, offering low, grounded storage that keeps everyday clutter tucked away. This piece suits households that want somewhere generous to house table linens, serveware and books without dominating the floor. Measuring 135cm wide and 73.4cm tall, it sits comfortably against a wall or beneath a window, and its 48cm depth gives you a useful surface for lamps, a stack of platters or a run of framed photographs. The two solid wood sliding doors glide across the front, so you never need clearance for hinged doors to swing open, which makes it a sensible choice for tighter hallways and snug corners too.

The character here comes from the diagonal grain that runs across both sliding doors, a detail we think reads quietly across the whole front. Finished in a deep black oak, the piece is made from solid oak, MDF and oak veneer, with a warmth to the wood that keeps the darker colour from feeling cold. Standing on four round legs, it lifts clear of the floor, which helps the sideboard feel lighter than its 51kg suggests and makes cleaning underneath straightforward. Behind the doors you have concealed storage, while the top holds up to 50kg when the weight is spread evenly, and each internal shelf takes up to 15kg on the same basis.

Assembly takes around 20 minutes, so you will not lose an afternoon to it. To keep the finish looking its best, we suggest wiping the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth and dealing with any spills promptly rather than letting moisture sit on the wood. For styling, we like pairing the matt black oak with warm brass handles or a few ceramics in muted grey, letting the grain do the talking while the top stays uncluttered.
