Its soft, luminous patina allows it to blend seamlessly into a kitchen, dining room, or entryway, adding a warm and inviting touch.

materials: crafted from beechwood, this parisian sideboard showcases a wood grain with visible traces of old, patinated gray paint.

features: the sideboard features two drawers in the upper section, providing convenient everyday storage. The lower section includes a cupboard with two solid doors that open to reveal a generous storage space, complemented by two shelves (fixed height). The solid brass butterfly hinges add a distinctive charm to the sideboard. Its balanced proportions and robust structure make it a piece of furniture that is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing, ideal for everyday use.

refurbishment: this parisian sideboard has been carefully sanded to remove the various layers of paint that covered it, leaving traces of the original finish. It was then washed, protected with a clear matte varnish on the exterior, and painted in farrow & ball's oval room blue. Finally, as the lock was no longer functional, a magnet was installed to ensure the doors close properly.
