Home    Display Cabinets

Oak display cabinets are popular because they are suitable for so many interiors, with styles from decorative Victorian to minimalist contemporary.  Artistic and creative people enjoy our choice of rustic display cabinets and distressed display cabinets while fans of rich, warm colours appreciate the choice of dark wood display cabinets.  Alternatively, for a light, fresh timber we have ash display cabinets that are good quality hardwood furniture at competitive prices and so represent excellent value for money.

More about Display Cabinets
At the end of the 17th Century, glassmakers developed ways of making larger panes of glass without distortion.  The most obvious consequence of this was a change in the design of house windows but, in the furniture world, the new larger panes of glass facilitated the introduction of the Vitrine or glass display cabinet (from the French word vitre, meaning pane of glass).  With collections housed behind glass, it meant that bain of all collectors, dust, could be reduced or eliminated.  Early display cabinets usually housed things such as plates, china, silverware or gold, but todays collections and displays are as individual as their owners.

It is personal touches such as these that make a house into a home.  Collections of any kind say much about the occupier and what better way to display them than a purpose-built cabinet.  The skill is in choosing furniture that is attractive yet does not overpower the collection it is intended to display.

Smaller items need an understated setting while larger items can tolerate more elaborate styles of cabinet.  Don't forget to consider lighting, colour and dusting(!) and the result should be a perfect display.  With so many factors to take into account, at Right Price Furniture we offer a variety of home display cabinets to suit all purposes. There are simple, elegant designs in oak or pine, designs with glass doors and concealed lighting or more flamboyant designs to suit the wild romantic spirits.  Many of these cabinets can be selected in a choice of wood or painted finishes, providing even greater suitability. To extend a collection or display even further, why not consider choosing an additional cabinet from our choice of corner units.
