Discover the Solid Walnut Sliding-door Sideboard
Standing 180 x 83 cm, this walnut veneer sideboard is built on a frame and legs of solid walnut wood, with body and doors in veneer set into solid frames. That construction matters: a framed panel can move a little with the seasons without splitting, which is how large timber fronts stay flat for decades. A varnish finish seals the surface and lifts the chocolate depth walnut develops as it ages. The two sliding doors pass in front of one another, so no swing space is needed at either end of the piece.
Look closely and the doors carry air vents, which stop the interior becoming stale and make the piece suitable for storing textiles or media equipment. They are adjustable, so the glide can be tuned if a floor shifts underneath. Inside sits a hidden drawer for the small things that never quite have a home — keys, chargers, playing cards. The collection was designed by Federico Bergamino with the Kave Home team, and the boards are bonded with zero-emission adhesives.
