HUTCH
THROUGH WEDDING REGISTRIES, birthdays, shopping and thrift-store hunting, you can accumulate a large collection of dinnerware. You need a space to store it, but if you don’t want everything on display, a hutch can help you out. First popular in the 18th and early 19th centuries, hutches have been perfected to both conceal extra dinnerware or tablecloths and shine a spotlight on trinkets or accent items. You can store large serving platters that rely on colorful food for their aesthetic appeal in the deep cabinets of a hutch. Dainty tea plates that are too fragile for use but too beautiful to hide could sit behind glass doors. The key is finding a hutch that can fiboth your style and your collections.
