Retrova Mono Sideboard

An Original Design by Chapterliving

Transform your living space with our Matisse-inspired Mid-Century Retro Sideboard, a stunning collision of vintage charm and modern practicality. Designed to cure modern styling anxieties, this colourful accent cabinet features a classic Danish-style blue and yellow palette that instantly brightens any room. Taking up just 0.48㎡ of floor space, it is perfectly sized to fill awkward living room corners or serve as a quirky hallway console. Complete with a clever extendable desktop, this multi-functional sideboard effortlessly transitions from a storage unit to a compact vanity desk or workspace, bringing both an artistic mood and ultimate utility to your home.

Key Features

Matisse-Inspired Colour Blocking: Drawing inspiration from classic vintage colour palettes, this sideboard features a striking mid-century blue and yellow contrast. It effortlessly evokes the feeling of a retro movie scene, acting as a statement piece to lift the mood of your room and cure the monotony of modern home anxiety.

Artistic “Skeleton Line” Handles: Instead of standard knobs, the cabinet doors are adorned with geometric intersecting skeleton lines. This high-end, bespoke detail not only adds a dynamic, mid-century aesthetic to the facade but also serves as a highly practical, integrated handle for effortless daily use.

FAS-Grade Imported Basswood Top: Quality you can see and feel. The top surface is crafted from North American imported FAS-grade basswood, showcasing a natural, premium wood grain that exudes high-end luxury and ensures long-lasting durability.

0.48㎡ Footprint & 80cm Ergonomic Height: Designed for compact UK homes, its small footprint fits perfectly into blank corners. The 80cm (31.5") height is ergonomically perfect—whether used as a sideboard, a hallway console, or a makeshift desk, you won’t have to bend over uncomfortably.

15.5cm(6.1") Elevated Base for Easy Cleaning: The cabinet is raised 15.5cm (6.1") off the floor, creating a light, airy aesthetic while providing ample clearance. This thoughtful design leaves no dead corners for dust to settle and allows robot vacuums to glide underneath effortlessly.

Master Craftsmanship & Dovetail Joints: Built to last using traditional dovetail joint construction on the drawers for superior tensile strength and anti-pulling durability. Expertly hand-rubbed by master artisans, the “two-base-one-top” eco-friendly water-based paint process penetrates deeply for a chip-resistant, flawless finish.

Industrial Mid-Century Metal Legs: The cabinet is supported by high-quality stainless steel legs that are anti-corrosion and anti-rust, perfectly blending an industrial edge with the retro wooden cabinet body for a grounded, stylish look.

3. Delivery Service & Scheduling

• Pre-Delivery Call for Large Items: For bulky items such as sofas and large sideboards, we will call you in advance to schedule your delivery and assess your property access.
• Vehicle Access Requirements: Our standard large items are delivered via 8.4m or 13.5m lorries. To ensure a smooth and safe delivery, these vehicles require a road width of at least 2.4 meters, that is not a single-track road, with sufficient clear space for the driver to unload the goods.
• Alternative Vehicle Arrangement: If your property is located on a narrow street, a single-lane road, or lacks unloading space, we will arrange a smaller vehicle for your delivery. Please proactively inform us of any potential access restrictions during your pre-delivery phone call so we can dispatch the correct vehicle size.
• Kerbside Delivery: Standard delivery is kerbside only. The carrier will deliver the item to the ground floor entrance (driveway or front door). For safety reasons, drivers cannot carry items upstairs or inside rooms unless a “Room of Choice” upgrade is purchased. Please ensure someone is available to help move the item inside.
• Delivery Hours: We deliver 7 days a week, between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm (Excluding Bank Holidays).

4. Failed Delivery & Unclaimed Goods

• Please keep your phone accessible to receive our delivery call.
• Failed Delivery Fee: If the delivery team cannot access the property (e.g., incorrect vehicle size arranged due to unreported access restrictions), parking is unavailable, or no one is present to accept the goods during the scheduled slot, a £30 failed delivery fee will apply to cover re-delivery or return handling.
• Unclaimed Goods: If goods are not collected within the carrier’s holding period, they may be disposed of. No refund will be issued for unclaimed or destroyed items.

5. Returns, Cancellations & Refunds

• ChapterLiving Guarantee: We deliver only premium quality. Customized and made-to-order items cannot be returned unless they are faulty.

For refused shipments or incorrect addresses, refunds will deduct both original and return shipping costs).*
