If you’re looking for an elegant and timeless touch in your dining buffet, go for a buffet with a marble top. Whether real or faux, marble sideboards are right on trend, and some of the faux ones look so real you would never know they’re not. The luxury of a marble top on a buffet is more than just good to look at, and it’s also a very practical surface on which to place hot or cold food as well as drinks without worrying about spills on wood.

Buying Guide

Most buffet with marble tops sports a classy antique and traditional look but it doesn’t end there.

Luckily, these attractive pieces of furniture also come in contemporary, modern, and minimalist styles. Therefore, you can choose between a rich-toned buffet with intricate carvings for an eye-catching focal point, a sleek unfussy buffet for a simple but elegant touch in your dining room, or one with a weathered appearance to give your space a vintage vibe. Moreover, if you’re looking for a buffet with a marble top that lies in between the traditional and modern spectrum, you can always go for a transitional-style piece.

The best way to maintain a buffet with marble top is to dust it regularly and wipe its surface with a cloth.

For occasional deeper cleaning, you can spray some distilled water on its marble top, sprinkle some cornstarch, and leave it for a few hours. You can then wipe it off with a clean rug, spray some more distilled water, and wipe it down one last time.

While your buffet with marble top doesn’t have to exactly match your other pieces of furniture, having them in a similar style and shade can create a sense of cohesion in the space. You wouldn’t want an old-fashioned, ornate buffet in a modern dining room unless you’re aiming for an eclectic look.

Moreover, pick a buffet with a marble top that works together with your dining room set’s color palette. For instance, if your dining room furniture sports a warm, wooden tone, consider going for a design with a warm finish like oak or cherry so that they blend together almost seamlessly. Likewise, a black buffet with a white marble top would fit perfectly in a room with a white dining table and black dining chairs.
