FAQs
Functionally they're the same piece - both are low, long storage furniture designed for dining rooms or living spaces. 'Buffet' is more common in formal dining contexts (storing crockery, linens, serving from the top). 'Sideboard' is more common in lounge or entryway use. Bay Gallery uses both terms across the same range.
Most buffets and sideboards range from 1.4m to 2.1m long. Match the length to your dining table - a 1.6m buffet works alongside an 1.8m table, while a 2.1m piece suits larger 2.4m+ dining tables. Width is typically 40-50cm to fit comfortably against a wall.
Yes - buffets and sideboards are increasingly used in lounge rooms (as a media console alternative), entryways (for keys, mail, displaying art), or as bedroom storage. The flexibility is part of why this category is one of Bay Gallery's bestsellers.
The range includes mango wood (Beaumont Mango Wood Sideboard), timber buffets across the Kingscliff range, and contemporary designer finishes. Mango wood is the most popular - sustainable, with rich grain character that develops over time.
