Styling Your Space with French Country & Painted Buffets
Our curated collection of painted French buffets and sideboards brings stunning European charm and functional storage into every room. When choosing the perfect piece, think about scale, door style, and the design details that best complement your space.
Selecting the Right Style Buffet?
- Louis Style Buffets: Choose a Louis-style buffet to bring timeless elegance and classic French refinement into your space. With graceful curves and polished proportions, they suit formal dining rooms, Parisian interiors, and traditionally styled homes.
- French Country Demilune Shaped Buffets: Curved buffets are ideal for adding softness in smaller or narrow spaces. Their curved shape creates visual flow and warmth, making them perfect for entryways, breakfast rooms, and relaxed French Country interiors.
- Geometric Carved Front Buffets: For a bold yet refined statement, geometric carved buffets add texture and depth. They work beautifully in transitional, modern French, and eclectic spaces where craftsmanship meets contemporary design.
- Fluted Door Buffets: Fluted door buffets introduce subtle architectural detail with a clean, rhythmic look. Their refined lines suit European farmhouse, modern French, and quietly elegant interiors.
- Painted Motif Buffets: Painted motif buffets add artistry and personality through hand-painted details. They’re perfect for collected interiors, European country homes, and spaces that celebrate craftsmanship and charm.
Choosing the Right Dining Table Shape
- Rectangular Dining Tables: The most traditional and versatile option, rectangular tables work beautifully in longer dining rooms and open-concept spaces and are ideal for family and friend gatherings.
- Round Dining Tables: Ideal for smaller dining rooms or breakfast nooks, round tables promote easy conversation and create a softer, more intimate feel.
- Oval Dining Tables: Offering the best of both worlds, oval tables provide the length of a rectangular table with gentler curves. They soften formal spaces while maintaining ample seating.
- Square Dining Tables: Square tables create balance in square-shaped rooms and are well-suited for cozy dining areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right size dining table?
Allow at least 36 inches of clearance around the table for comfortable seating and movement. For each place setting, plan for approximately 24 inches of table width.
Do finishes vary from piece to piece?
Yes. Due to the handcrafted nature of our tables, natural variations in wood grain, color, and distressing are expected—and celebrated.
Customization: Most of our dining tables are sold as shown, but we also offer many tables in custom finishes.
Pro Tip: To preserve the beauty of your dining table’s finish, use placemats or runners for daily meals and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can naturally alter wood tones over time.
