Larkin pine sideboard from Graham and Green

Posted on | Leave a comment

Larkin sideboard
This Larkin pine sideboard is part of Graham and Green's new spring collection. 

The sideboard has been designed to have a vintage look, with all those drawer handles giving it the look of an old plan chest. However, appearances in this case are deceptive and the sideboard is more suited to twenty-first century storage needs: the sideboard actually is made of just two drawers at the top with two large cupboards below with a central shelf. 

Not cheap but, if you like the look, the sideboard costs £875

Cemia_med 
Ligne Roset’s Cemia collection is a whole range of storage furniture for the living room, dining room and bedroom.

The collection includes wardrobes, chests of drawers of various sizes, sideboards and TV cabinets, all of which have been created from two sections of curved multi-ply in walnut or matt white. The fronts and backs are available in white or black lacquer or with the walnut option a glossy taupe finish, which looks particularly midcentury.

As you would expect with Ligne Roset products, the Cemia range comes with a hefty price attached – a 2 drawer bedside unit costs £1,261 whilst the sideboard pictured here costs £3,374. Further details are available on the Ligne Roset West End website.

Ovalsideboard 
Dwell’s Oval Sideboard isn’t a show-stopping design, but it is a simple, practical and reasonably priced item of retro-inspired furniture.

The sideboard has a gentle curved edge to it, which suggest a midcentury influence and it offers a decent amount of storage space behind its two doors. It is available in either the walnut veneer finish pictured above or a white gloss lacquer.

The sideboard costs £699 from Dwell.

Porada Empire Sideboard

We haven’t featured a sideboard for a couple of weeks, so what about the Porada Empire Sideboard?

Porada’s designs are rooted in the Italian artisan tradition, but mixing wood with more modern materials. The Empire Sideboard gives a nod to retro styles with the concave feature on its doors and the colour of the doors (walnut as pictured here, or a more space-age looking white glass option), but it is updated with the mirrored frame.

Prices start from £3,444 for the walnut version, with the white gloss version costing just over £3,700. Buy online from Mac & Mac Interiors
