Cabinets & Storage
Armoires, sideboards, display cabinets, bookcases and chests: storage with presence, from English oak and figured walnut to mid-century and contemporary designs.
Many are one of a kind. Our workshop can refresh a finish or adapt an interior where the piece allows.

Cabinets & Storage: Start With What It Will Hold
After the sofa or the dining table, a cabinet is often the largest piece in the room. It has to work every day and look right from across the room. Before choosing a finish, decide three things: what it will hold, where it will stand and how it will get there.
What will it hold?
Tableware, linens & drinks
Sideboards and buffets keep serving pieces, cutlery and table linens close to the dining table, and give you a surface for serving. Check that shelves are deep enough for your largest platters and that at least one drawer suits cutlery.
China & collections
Glass-fronted display cabinets and breakfronts protect what you want to see every day. Look at shelf spacing for taller pieces, and whether interior lighting would help.
Clothing & everyday things
An armoire can hold clothes, linens or a home office behind closed doors. Measure the clear space inside, not just the outside, especially for hanging clothes.
Books, screens & equipment
Bookcases work best with adjustable shelves. Media consoles need room behind for cables and enough airflow for equipment, so check the back panel and interior depth.
Three measurements before you buy
Height on the wall
Note what sits above the piece: windows, art, light switches and any sloping ceiling. A tall cabinet against a short wall can feel crowded; a low one under a large painting can anchor it.
Room to open
Doors need space to swing and drawers to pull out fully, with room to stand in front of them. Deep pieces also reach further into a walkway than you might expect.
The way in
Measure doorways, stair turns and, in a condo, the elevator and its door. Many larger case pieces come apart into sections; ask us before you buy and we will check.
Making an older piece work today
Many cabinets can be adapted to a new use: shelves added or moved, openings made for cables, or the finish adjusted to suit your room. Our workshop considers each piece individually, and we will tell you when a piece is best left as it is.
Old and new, side by side
In our Toronto showroom, English oak and figured walnut stand beside mid-century and contemporary pieces, so you can compare scale and finish in person. Bring your measurements and a photo of the wall.
