A credenza is a dining room sideboard, particularly one where a central cupboard is flanked by glass display cabinets,[1][2] and usually made of burnished and polished wood and decorated with marquetry. The top would often be made of marble, or another decorative liquid- and heat-resistant stone.
Originally in Italian the name meant belief or trust (etymologically connected to the English word "credence"). In the 16th century the act of credenza was the tasting of food and drinks by a servant for a lord or other important person (such as the pope or a cardinal) in order to test for poison. The name may have passed then to the room where the act took place, then to the furniture
On donna d'abord le nom de crédence aux languiers servant aux essais (c'est de cette pratique que vient l'expression, attestée au xve siècle, « faire crédence », c'est-à-dire « goûter les aliments ou les boissons avant de les servir »).
