This antique oak washstand or sideboard has a highly decorative, carved backsplash and an upper storage area. The top crest is shaped in a scrolled silhouette with stylized leaves and a raised central motif. Just below the crest, a small open shelf extends across three compartments—two of which have doors or drawers (with white ceramic knobs) flanking a middle cubby. The main surface beneath these compartments is finished in black, contrasting with the warm golden oak tones of the rest of the piece.

The lower portion features a wide central drawer with ornate metal pulls, and beneath that, two paneled doors that open to additional storage. The door panels have horizontal boards, showing off the wood’s rich grain, and the entire cabinet rests on a gently curved apron at the bottom. Overall, the combination of carved detailing, distinct compartments, and the oak’s pronounced grain lends this piece a classic, vintage charm—perfect for displaying dishes, linens, or decorative items.
