Finding the Right Buffets for You

For get-togethers or large celebratory meals in your already sumptuous dining area, a charming and durable vintage, new or antique buffet, with its decorative and practical features, can truly elevate the experience.

Although often used as a synonym for “sideboard,” a buffet technically possesses a tiered or shelved superstructure for displaying decorative kitchenware. The term derives from buffet à deux corps, a piece that is seen mostly in French Provincial furniture. And while the terms “case pieces” and “case goods” may cause even the most decor-obsessed to stumble, these furnishings — which include buffets, credenzas, cupboards and other must-have items — have been a vital part of the home for centuries.

Buffets are the ideal place to keep serveware and larger serving pieces that you’d rather have tucked away when not in use. They’re typically long and low and can be the perfect option for serving food as well as storing your porcelain and making your space tidy and organized. Feel free to dress up your buffet between meals with decorative objects or stacks of art books.

A buffet can be positioned in your living room, entryway or hall if space allows. But if you intend to permanently pair your case piece with your dining room table, when shopping for your vintage buffet you’ll definitely want to think about your dining room’s space restrictions. Allow for at least two feet of space between your buffet and your table so that guests can easily move to and fro as needed, and a buffet that is convenient for serving food should be as high as a kitchen counter if possible.

If you’re looking for inspiration for your home bar or dining area, find Art Deco buffets, mid-century modern buffets, Hollywood Regency buffets and other varieties on 1stDibs today.

Questions About Buffets Hutches
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    Why a hutch is called that is due to the history of the English language. In Old English, the word for a box or chest is hwiċe or hwiċċe. Eventually, over time, the word became hutch, which refers to a type of case good that features a set of shelves or cabinets placed on top of a lower structure that is outfitted with drawers or additional cabinets. Hutches are most often found in dining rooms or kitchens. Shop a collection of hutches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    The difference between a hutch vs. a buffet is the design. A hutch is a piece of storage furniture that has a lower cabinet and an upper storage area with shelves that are open or placed behind doors. A buffet lacks this top storage area. Some hutches feature detachable tops and can convert into buffets. Find a variety of dining room furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    A buffet cupboard is sometimes called a sideboard in the United States. Buffet comes from the French buffet à deux corps, which referred to a storage and display case. However, a buffet technically possesses a tiered or shelved superstructure for displaying attractive kitchenware and certainly makes more sense in the context of buffet dining — abundant meals served for crowds of people. Sideboards in England and France were a place to keep hot water for rinsing silverware and from which to serve cold drinking water, but the pieces would later evolve into double-bodied structures that allowed for the display of serveware and utensils on open shelves. On 1stDibs, find a range of antique, vintage and new buffet cabinets, sideboards and other case furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021

  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021
    A hutch cabinet — or hutch — refers to a type of case furniture.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Hutches were used for holding china and glassware in a kitchen. Decorative pieces could historically be placed on the upper shelves and smaller odds and ends could be tucked away in cabinets and drawers below. Today, many people still utilize hutches in this way, but they may also choose to store other items inside. On 1stDibs, shop a range of hutches.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    Buffet furniture typically refers to the type of table found in dining rooms on which a host or hostess can serve food buffet style. A buffet table is usually taller than a sideboard, but carries a nearly identical function and form.

  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021
    The difference between a sideboard and a hutch is that a sideboard is a side table with cabinet doors that was originally used for serving, most often in a dining room (now, you might find a sideboard in a foyer or living room). A hutch is essentially a storage piece made of two parts — there is a set of shelves or cabinets on top of a lower unit, which features a counter and either cabinets or a set of drawers. In form, a credenza has much in common with a sideboard. A hutch might be of help in serving tea or other beverages, but it is more of a case piece than it is a piece of furniture that is used for serving. Shop a collection of antique, vintage and contemporary sideboards and hutches from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021

    A floating buffet is a cabinet that is wall-mounted in a way that floats above the ground. It generally has a flat surface that looks suspended. These buffets offer a sleek and modern look as compared to traditional storage options.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024
    What you put in a buffet is a matter of personal preference. Traditionally, the purpose of a buffet is to provide storage in dining areas, so many people choose to keep dishes, servingware and glassware inside. However, you're free to use a buffet in any way that suits your organizational needs. Place one in the foyer to hide away shoes, bags and accessories, or put one in the living room to store board games and media. The only limit on how you can use a buffet in your home is your imagination. Explore a wide range of buffets on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    The difference between a hutch and a credenza is their appearance: A hutch is usually a tall freestanding unit that contains cabinets or a display case that sits on top of the set of drawers underneath, and a credenza is a short and long table with low cabinets on slender legs, often with sliding doors for concealing the items inside the unit.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    The difference between a hutch and a breakfront is their shape. Both types of storage furniture feature sectioned designs. On a breakfront, the center sections are deeper, causing them to project outward more than the rest of the piece. A hutch normally has sections of equal depth. Some also have protruding shelves. Find a collection of breakfronts and hutches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    The top part of a hutch is either a display case or cabinets.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    The main difference between a hutch and a china cabinet is their locations in a home. Although they look similar, a hutch can be placed in nearly any room and has a multipurpose use (for storage or displaying collections). A china cabinet is always in a dining room or kitchen and is used for storing and displaying fine china.

  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
