Serbian translation:ostava

Explanation:
I think you should put ostava, there is no colonial word close enough in Serbian that I can think of. And even if there were such a word, maybe it wouldn't be appropriate to use it, because then your readers may not understand it since it's too old-fashioned?

Butler's Pantry…
This room was used to plate and serve the food, wash and store the china and stemware, and to polish and store the silver. ... A family member would press a button which would ring a bell and light up the board, indicating the room location, and someone would be sent immediately to that room. … The dumbwaiter in the corner was used to send food and laundry to the second floor. The center table has practical storage for linens in drawers that go all the way through the table.
