Sideboard In Teak With Rattan – High 79cm

The Sideboard in Teak with Rattan is a low-profile storage unit standing at a height of 79 cm. Measuring 200 cm in width and 45 cm in depth, this furniture piece is constructed primarily from solid teak wood and incorporates woven natural rattan panels. The entire wooden structure features a Super Sanded surface finish, which provides a smooth, matte texture devoid of glossy lacquers while preserving the natural grain patterns and light golden-brown tones characteristic of plantation-grown teak.

Weighing 68 kg and displacing 0.71 cubic meters, this sideboard is built for substantial placement along interior walls in residential or commercial dining rooms, living spaces, and hallways. The internal framework utilizes mortise and tenon joinery techniques typical of high-grade cabinet making, ensuring structural stability without the reliance on visible metal brackets. The rectangular top surface provides a continuous 200-by-45-centimeter horizontal platform capable of supporting heavy decorative objects, media equipment, or serving trays.

The front elevation of the unit is divided into functional storage sections concealed behind hinged doors and drawers. The door panels incorporate tightly woven natural rattan webbing set within solid teak frames. This porous material allows for continuous air circulation inside the compartments, making the interior suitable for storing items that require ventilation, such as table linens, electronics, or dishware. The weave pattern is uniform, utilizing a traditional multi-strand grid method that maintains structural tension across the frame openings without sagging.

Each door operates on concealed steel hinges that allow for precise angle adjustments during installation, ensuring flush closure against the cabinet face. The internal layout is partitioned by fixed wooden shelves running the full length of the interior chambers, dividing the vertical storage space into upper and lower tiers. The floor clearance underneath the main body is supported by four cylindrical teak legs that taper slightly toward the ground, elevating the cabinet base off the floor to facilitate cleaning underneath and prevent moisture accumulation against the bottom panel.

The back panel of the sideboard consists of a thick plywood sheet finished with a matching teak veneer, allowing the unit to be placed away from walls as a room divider if necessary, though it is primarily designed for perimeter placement. Cable management is accommodated by pre-drilled circular ports positioned discreetly in the rear panel behind the central compartments, enabling the passage of cords for audio-visual components stored inside.

Maintenance of the Super Sanded teak surface requires minimal intervention compared to high-gloss or oiled finishes. Dusting with a dry microfiber cloth is sufficient for routine upkeep. In the event of surface marks or staining, the untreated nature of the Super Sanded wood allows for fine-grit sanding directly on the affected area without compromising a synthetic topcoat. The natural rattan elements can be cleaned using a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner to remove particulate matter from the recesses of the weave.

The combination of dense tropical hardwood and resilient plant-fiber webbing results in a rigid structure resistant to standard indoor humidity fluctuations. The teak contains natural oils that protect the internal fibers from moisture damage and insect infestation, while the rattan sections are treated with a clear protective sealer to prevent premature brittleness while retaining their natural pale hue. The hardware components, including internal shelf supports and door catches, are manufactured from corrosion-resistant brass and steel alloys, rated for repetitive daily use over decades of domestic or commercial service.
