The sideboard appeared back in the 18th century. The task of the product is to expose luxurious dishes. Porcelain, ceramics were very expensive, therefore, in order to emphasize their status, all the expensive kitchen utensils were put up for everyone to see. The wardrobe for dishes is often the center of your living room.
Coal in his classic manifestation
A typical model consists of two parts: of a chest of drawers in the lower part of the housing and glazed shelves in the upper. The glazed top protects the contents from dust, it is easy to care for such furniture. Initially, this furniture was made only from expensive wood, the legs were curved, with patterns. Shelves with glass were divided into sectors, and various kitchen utensils were stored in the lower chest of drawers. Today, the design of the product can be very diverse, from luxurious patterned walls of the classics to straight lines of minimalism.
The concept of “buffet” and “sideboard” are similar, but there is a small difference. The upper part of the latter is always closed by doors with glass, in the buffet the upper parts can remain open.

Starting the choice of sideboard:
- Pour out from the style and color scheme of the room. Everything should be in harmony, a reception of contrast is less often used. For a dark cabinet, lighting is especially relevant. In the spacious room on the sunny side, the backlight is not too useful.
- The key furniture elements are glass, as you know, not too durable material. Remember, the glass should be hardened, the minimum thickness is 4 mm. If the interior allows, use colored glass. LEDs and halogen lamps will give solidity design.
- In order for the furniture to harmonize with the existing design of the apartment, it is necessary to think over the dimensions, features of the facade. For the classic style, dark wood, curled legs, patterns on the doors are appropriate. For modern, high-tech, minimalism, it is worth remembering that the construct itself should not be elaborate, but simple.
