Buffets and sideboards

A buffet (also called a sideboard) is a long, low cabinet for storing dinnerware, table linen and everyday clutter, with a flat top for lamps, photos or serving food. We stock three buffets, priced from $599 to $999: the Finland Buffet, the Amora Buffet and the Falcon 3 Drawer 4 Door Buffet.

What is the difference between a buffet and a sideboard?

In New Zealand the two words are used for the same thing: a long storage cabinet, usually in a dining room or lounge. A hutch is different, because it has a second cabinet or shelving unit on top.

Which buffet should I choose?

  • Falcon 3 Drawer 4 Door Buffet: A mix of drawers and cupboards for cutlery and larger items, Falcon dining table, coffee table, hall table, lamp table, desk, bar stool
  • Finland Buffet: Pairs with the Finland wine and display cabinets, Finland hall table, lamp table, wine cabinet, display cabinet
  • Amora Buffet: Matches the Amora living range, Amora coffee table, hall table

How big should a buffet be?

A buffet usually looks best when it is noticeably shorter than the wall it sits on, leaving some wall visible at each end. In a dining room, leave around 90 cm between the buffet and the back of the dining chairs so people can walk past. Measure your space before you visit and we'll help you check the fit.

Build a matching living and dining room

Because the Falcon, Finland and Amora ranges each have several pieces, you can match your buffet with dining, coffee and hall tables, a wine cabinet or bar stool, and a TV unit.
