While both provide excellent storage, their internal configurations are tailored for different uses. Bar cabinets, such as our Fossil and Lotus models, are specifically designed to house glassware and bar accessories, often featuring wine racks or specialised shelving for bottles. Display cabinets, like the Stonegrace range, often feature glass doors or open sections intended to showcase decorative items or trophies. When choosing between these cabinets, consider whether you need specialised compartments for entertaining or a more versatile unit for general home décor.
Mango and Acacia are favoured for cabinets because they are dense hardwoods that offer exceptional durability and natural resistance to moisture. These woods feature beautiful, intricate grain patterns that ensure every cabinet is unique. Technically, our solid wood cabinets are crafted to support significant weight, making them ideal for storing heavy bottles or large collections of tableware. By choosing cabinets made from these sustainable hardwoods, you are investing in a piece of furniture that balances robust structural integrity with high-end artisanal design.
To select the perfect cabinets for your space, first consider the vertical height as well as the width. Tall, narrow cabinets are excellent for smaller rooms as they provide vertical storage without taking up much floor space. For larger dining or living areas, wider units like our 120cm cabinets create a more substantial focal point. Always ensure you allow enough clearance for the doors to swing open, typically at least 50cm to 60cm, to ensure your cabinets remain functional and easy to access within your existing room configuration.
