Sideboards & Buffet Cabinets

A sideboard and a buffet cabinet are very similar — both are low, wide storage units with doors and drawers, traditionally used in dining rooms. The term "buffet" often refers to a piece used specifically for serving food, while "sideboard" is a broader term used for storage and display. The two terms are often used interchangeably.

Sideboards are incredibly versatile — use them to store dining essentials such as crockery, glassware, and table linen, or as a display surface for plants, artwork, and decorative objects. In a living room, a sideboard can store media equipment, books, and everyday items while keeping surfaces tidy.

Consider the width of the wall where the sideboard will sit and the height relative to surrounding furniture. A standard sideboard is typically 120–180cm wide and 75–90cm tall. Ensure there is enough clearance to open doors and drawers fully, and check the product dimensions carefully before purchasing.

Our sideboards come in a range of finishes including natural timber, walnut-look, white, black, and two-tone combinations. Timber and walnut finishes add warmth to a dining room, while white and black options suit modern and minimalist interiors. Many styles are available with matching dining tables and chairs.

Yes — a sideboard or buffet cabinet works well in a hallway as an entry storage solution. Use it to store keys, mail, and everyday essentials, and style the top with a mirror, lamp, and decorative objects for a welcoming entryway. Look for a slimmer profile model if hallway space is limited.
