	The buffet is a cupboard used for storing crockery and table linen. &nbsp;It can be low, &nbsp;comprising &nbsp;2 or 3 doors and drawers, or what we call a high buffet with an upper cupboard sitting on the lower part. &nbsp;The styles of buffets have followed that of all French furniture, through the Louis periods to the Empire and Napoleon III period, and profiting from the creativity of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco mouvements. &nbsp;The buffet ancien still has its place in the modern home.</p>
