This item was introduced in 2009 and retired in 2016.
Rebecca’s family uses this wooden sideboard for serving food and drinks at mealtime. The drawer is lined with felt, and the double-door cabinet features decorative metal hardware and really opens, providing plenty of storage space. Rebecca's sideboard is a lovely piece of furniture, but I personally don't find it worth $130. There is a small drawer just below the main surface, which is lined with red velvet. This is nice, and it can hold some of Rebecca's Sabbath set, but not the samovar or its tray. Below the drawer is a cabinet space. Again, this can hold some of Rebecca's things, but not the samovar or tray. The mirror and the top shelf are very cunning- the samovar looks beautiful and shiny in reflection. It is a lovely piece, but it just isn't worth the $130 they're asking for it. Grade: B-

I got Rebecca's Sideboard today and love, love, love it! It's a bit small in scale but I can understand that. It's very heavy and sturdy and should hold up well to play. There is removable film on the mirror. Mine had a smear of paint or glue on the bottom but a replacement was sent. I love this piece and can't wait to use it.

I set up Rebecca's Sideboard with her Sabbath and Hanukkah Sets and I am pleased to say that I was very impressed with them all. The Sideboard is made of wood and the drawer is lined with a burgundy velveteen material, only downside is that the cabinet underneath is not large enough to hold the Samovar for storage. I give it an A- The Hanukkah set has a very nice and heavy metal menorah, though the gelt is a bit large (almost real size coins). more pictures can be seen here: *mod edit to remove dead link*

I have added 2 inch legs to my Rebecca's Sideboard. It works better scale-wise with the rest of her collection, particularly her Settee..

Rebecca's Sideboard a beautiful, beautifully-made, and unique piece. A And yes, it is clearly too short.
