Kitchens long ago usually included a hutch as an exceptional furniture piece that was for the purpose of showcasing the treasures of the family, such as pewter, glass or china.
This specialized furniture was also used as a pantry for the storage of provisions, utensils and kitchen equipment.
In this day and age, the modern hutch and pantry may be a free-standing furniture piece or it may be designed as an integral part of the kitchen.
