What is the difference between a sideboard and a credenza?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but a sideboard traditionally refers to a dining-room storage piece with doors and drawers, while a credenza tends to be lower and longer with sliding doors. In the antiques market, both words describe broadly the same category of low horizontal storage furniture.

How do I date an antique sideboard?

Look at the timber, leg style, hardware and joinery. Tapered or compass legs point to 1950s–1970s Scandinavian design; geometric rosewood veneers signal Art Deco (1920–1940). A maker's stamp or publisher's label underneath the carcass often allows precise dating.

What should I expect to pay for an antique or vintage sideboard?

Budget around £300–£700 for a good-condition unsigned vintage piece, £800–£2,500 for an identified Scandinavian designer in teak, and upwards of £3,000 for a signed Art Deco sideboard or one with documented provenance.

How do I care for a teak or rosewood sideboard?

Clean with a lightly dampened cloth and mild soap. Feed teak once or twice a year with a specialist exotic-wood oil. Avoid silicone waxes and direct sunlight, both of which dry out and discolour precious timbers over time.

Can I arrange delivery for a sideboard purchased on Antiquités en France?

Yes. Every professional dealer on the platform can organise delivery, both within France and internationally. Contact the seller directly to obtain a shipping quote tailored to the piece's dimensions and your delivery address.
