Sideboard

One of the many new, highly specialized furniture forms introduced during the neoclassical era was the sideboard, a descendant of the earlier sideboard table but with the added advantage of drawers and compartments for the storage of "plate," flatware, table linen, and other dining equipment. In 1794, little more than a decade after the form first appeared, English furniture designer George Hepplewhite noted that the "great utility of this piece of furniture has procured it a very general reception; and the conveniencies it affords render a dining-room incomplete without a sideboard."
