Finding the Right Case Pieces And Storage Cabinets for You
Of all the vintage storage cabinets and antique case pieces that have become popular in modern interiors over the years, dressers, credenzas and cabinets have long been home staples, perfect for routine storage or protection of personal items.
In the mid-19th century, cabinetmakers would mimic styles originating in the Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI eras for their dressers, bookshelves and other structures, and, later, simpler, streamlined wood designs allowed these “case pieces” or “case goods” — any furnishing that is unupholstered and has some semblance of a storage component — to blend into the background of any interior.
Mid-century modern furniture enthusiasts will cite the tall modular wall units crafted in teak and other sought-after woods of the era by the likes of George Nelson, Poul Cadovius and Finn Juhl. For these highly customizable furnishings, designers of the day delivered an alternative to big, heavy bookcases by considering the use of space — and, in particular, walls — in new and innovative ways. Mid-century modern credenzas, which, long and low, evolved from tables that were built as early as the 14th century in Italy, typically have no legs or very short legs and have grown in popularity as an alluring storage option over time.
Although the name immediately invokes images of clothing, dressers were initially created in Europe for a much different purpose. This furnishing was initially a flat-surfaced, low-profile side table equipped with a few drawers — a common fixture used to dress and prepare meats in English kitchens throughout the Tudor period. The drawers served as perfect utensil storage. It wasn’t until the design made its way to North America that it became enlarged and equipped with enough space to hold clothing and cosmetics. The very history of case pieces is a testament to their versatility and well-earned place in any room.
In the spirit of positioning your case goods center stage, decluttering can now be design-minded.
A contemporary case piece with open shelving and painted wood details can prove functional as a storage unit as easily as it can a room divider. Alternatively, apothecary cabinets are charming case goods similar in size to early dressers or commodes but with uniquely sized shelving and (often numerous) drawers.
Whether you’re seeking a playful sideboard that features colored glass and metal details, an antique Italian hand-carved storage cabinet or a glass-door vitrine to store and show off your collectibles, there are options for you on 1stDibs.
Questions About Credenza With Caning
- What is a credenza?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021A credenza is a cabinet-style piece of furniture typically found in the dining room. It is often used for serving food, for displaying serving dishes, and for dining ware storage. It is typically defined by its short legs and sliding doors.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019
The purpose of a credenza is dependent on the room in which it is placed: Most credenzas are in a dining room and serve the same function as a buffet, but credenzas in a living room or bedroom are decorative and can be used as storage or a surface for displaying small objects. Credenzas tend to be long, low cabinets on slender legs, often with sliding doors for concealing small appliances, clothes, dishes…etc.
- Why is it called a credenza?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Why it is called a credenza relates to historic lore about the furniture. In Italian, credenza is a word for “trust” or “belief.” During the 16th century, food and drink was often tested by a servant for a prominent person to see if it contained poison. The sideboard where this tasting took place came to be called a credenza. From there, a cabinet used to hold drinkware, plates and other items became known by the term as well. Although credenzas are now general storage furniture used in homes and offices, the original name remains. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of credenzas.
- What is cane on a chair?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Cane is made by using rattan bark, a plant with a long stem. It is woven into a mesh of split canes, which is then stretched over parts of the framework. In this case, cane is woven to make a chair seat and back, for a rustic look. On 1stDibs, find a range of cane chairs from some of the world’s top sellers.
- What is a cane chair?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Cane chairs feature a woven pattern on either the seat or the back. They're called “cane” chairs because the woven part is made of cane, which is basically the skin of a rattan vine. Once it's peeled off, it's woven into the intricate pattern for furniture.
- What is a caned bed?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A caned bed is one that is made by using rattan bark, and weaving it into a mesh of split canes, which is then stretched over parts of the framework. In bedroom furniture, this would most likely be the headboard and footboard of the bed. Shop a collection of caned furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What is a TV credenza?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A TV credenza, also known as a TV cabinet, is a classic piece of furniture that can be used as a stand to support your television. Similar in form to credenzas — a popular kind of case piece — a TV credenza will likely feature shelves and cabinets or drawers for storage purposes. Shop a collection of antique, vintage, and contemporary TV cabinets from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
- What is a French cane?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022French cane is a type of tall grass that is known for being flexible and durable. French cane is often braided to create a woven texture that adds an eye-catching detail to furniture. Shop a collection of French cane furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024The difference between a credenza and a console is design. A credenza is an elongated low cabinet usually containing shelves concealed by cabinet doors. Some also have open shelving and drawers. On the other hand, a console is a tall, long and narrow table. Consoles may provide storage space in the form of open shelves or drawers, but some are simple tables with no storage features beyond their tops. Shop a selection of console tables and credenzas on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019
The difference between a hutch and a credenza is their appearance: A hutch is usually a tall freestanding unit that contains cabinets or a display case that sits on top of the set of drawers underneath, and a credenza is a short and long table with low cabinets on slender legs, often with sliding doors for concealing the items inside the unit.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019
The difference between a desk and a credenza is that a desk is a piece of furniture with a table-style work surface and tall legs used for academic, professional or domestic activities, and credenza is a short and long table with low cabinets on slender legs, often with sliding doors for concealing the items inside the unit.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between a console and a credenza is that one is a table, while the other is a cabinet. Console tables are narrow, tall tables often placed in entryways, hallways and living rooms against a wall or behind a sofa. They may feature drawers or open shelving for storing items. On the other hand, a credenza is a long, low cabinet used to store supplies in offices, entertainment center components in living rooms and other items elsewhere in a home. Most credenzas feature cabinets concealed behind doors. Find a wide range of consoles and credenzas on 1stDibs.
- Are cane headboards sturdy?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not cane headboards are sturdy depends on how they are made. Finely crafted headboards are generally durable. However, antique and vintage examples that have become warped or damaged over time may not be sturdy even if initially well-made. Shop a selection of cane headboards on 1stDibs.
- Are cane chairs strong?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, a properly cared for cane chair is very strong. Because cane is a plant fiber, it can dry out and become brittle over time. However, with proper oiling and by keeping your chairs out of direct sunlight, you can enjoy your cane chairs for many years to come. You’ll find a wide selection of cane furniture, including chairs, on 1stDibs.
- Are sword canes practical?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Whether or not sword canes are practical is largely a matter of personal opinion. During the days when men carried swords with them, a sword cane made it possible to discreetly bring one along. To some, this makes them more practical than other historic swords. Shop a selection of swords on 1stDibs.
- Are cane swords real?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, cane swords, or swordsticks, are indeed real. The cane containing a hidden blade became popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. You can find an assortment of cane swords from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The three main cane classifications are called standard canes, offset canes and multiple-legged canes. A standard cane might be referred to as a single-point cane and is meant to improve balance but not support weight. An offset cane can take some weight-bearing but only occasionally. A multiple-legged cane is the best option for weight-bearing support. On 1stDibs, find vintage and contemporary canes from top sellers around the world.
- What is cane furniture called?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024What cane furniture is called varies, but simply calling it "cane furniture" is generally acceptable. When the cane of a chair has been woven, you can call the furniture "wicker furniture" or "wicker cane furniture." Most cane comes from the rattan family of plants, so "rattan furniture" is often an accurate term for furnishings produced out of cane. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of cane furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Credenzas are small, typically fancy, legless buffets.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The best walking cane is the one that is properly sized for the individual who will be using it. Walking canes are designed to take pressure off when walking hence it is important that the person can stand as upright as possible, with their elbow slightly bent. Find a collection of antique and vintage walking canes on 1stDibs today.
