Red Lion Vintage Mid Century Modern Two-Piece China Cabinet Buffet and Hutch c. 1960s

This 1960s two-piece china cabinet was produced by Red Lion Furniture Company of Red Lion, Pennsylvania — a manufacturer known for carefully crafted American mid century modern furniture with an emphasis on functional elegance and quality construction. The Red Lion medallion label, affixed inside a drawer, confirms the piece's provenance.

The set consists of a display hutch resting atop a low-profile buffet base. The upper hutch features a wide open display shelf running the full width across the top, ideal for showing china, glassware, or decorative objects. Below, the hutch is divided between two large doors fitted with woven cane panels — a hallmark material of the period — and an open shelving section to the right. A flat display shelf connects the two sections at the lower portion of the hutch.

The buffet base is organized around two cabinet sections, each concealing well-considered interior storage: the left side houses removable wooden tray compartments, while the right reveals a generous set of green felt-lined silverware drawers — a period-correct detail that speaks to the piece's intended use as formal dining room furniture. A long drawer fitted with campaign-style hardware runs beneath both cabinet sections. The entire case rests on four slender, tapered legs in a contrasting darker stain that provides a graceful visual lift to the silhouette.

This china cabinet is in vintage as-pictured condition, showing wear consistent with age and use. These characteristics appeal to those who appreciate the original character and history of a vintage piece. For those seeking a fully refreshed look, we also offer a restored option. Restoration includes a full professional refinishing process involving sanding, staining, glazing, toning, and lacquering, along with functional adjustments to ensure long-term durability and a smooth, even finish.
