There are many styles of cabinets for displaying collectibles and other items. There are some that have glass panels and glass shelves. Others are made of fine wood with wood or glass shelves. Yet others are made with plastic, faux wood, steel, or a number of other materials. If the collection is a valuable one, like fine china or antiques, the collector will probably want to have a cabinet with a lock.
Consider your collection's style. Room display cabinets should not dominate a collection. Instead, they should enhance it. If you have a collection of model 19th century sailing ships, for example, choose a cabinet with traditional styling that will give your collection a "period" feel. Regardless of style, however, be sure that your cabinet has adjustable shelves. Consider alternate locations. Most people who want curio cabinets tend to want to place them in a living room or den. If you think creatively, though, you might be able to find an innovative way to display your collection. Here's an idea: what about a display cabinet built underneath a kitchen counter or island? Since the kitchen is the most used room in many houses, you'll have more opportunities to view your collection if it's located here.
Another type of storage furniture is the corner cabinet. This cabinet is shaped in such a way that it fits snugly in the corner of a room. Because of its clever design, it provides you with ample space to place your items in without taking too much floor space. People who live in smaller homes, such as studio apartments or condominium units, where it is not practical to use conventional display cabinets should consider getting this practical and space-saving cabinet instead. And lastly, there is also the wall mounted curio cabinet. It is perfect for people who live in tiny homes that are already so full of furnishings that there is hardly any remaining space to walk in. In tight places where even corner cabinets can be considered impractical, Display cabinets that can be mounted on the wall should be used instead by avid collectors to keep their items in. These pieces of storage furniture don't take up any floor room at all; they utilize the free wall space between the floor and the ceiling.
