Reeded Buffet For Sale on 1stDibs
At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal reeded buffet for your home. Each reeded buffet for sale was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, natural fiber and bamboo. Your living room may not be complete without a reeded buffet — find older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. When you’re browsing for the right reeded buffet, those designed in Hollywood Regency, Victorian and Mid-Century Modern styles are of considerable interest. You’ll likely find more than one reeded buffet that is appealing in its simplicity, but Ficks Reed produced versions that are worth a look.
How Much is a Reeded Buffet?
Prices for a reeded buffet can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $2,800 and can go as high as $14,000, while the average can fetch as much as $5,658.
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.
