About the collection

Sideboards, Coffers & Buffets

The Sideboards, Coffers & Buffets collection presents antique and vintage furniture from China, India, and Southeast Asia. Crafted from elm, teak, and sheesham, these storage pieces often feature carved aprons, lacquered or painted finishes, and original hardware that reflect regional craftsmanship.

Sideboards and buffets were designed for dining rooms, providing storage for serving ware, textiles, and utensils while offering a long surface for display or food service. Coffers served as multipurpose chests, storing valuables or bedding, and often carry unique decorative elements that make them sculptural statement pieces.

Many examples retain their original patina, showing a rich surface history, while others have been carefully restored for durability and continued use. Their versatility makes them suitable not only for dining areas but also for living rooms, entryways, or bedrooms, where they add both storage and character.

Browse the full selection in Sideboards, Coffers & Buffets and explore related categories such as Armoires & Dressers, Small Cabinets & Nightstands, or Home Accents. Shop antique and vintage storage that blends craftsmanship, function, and timeless design.
