Appearing during the reign of Louis XIV, it was such a prestigious piece of furniture that it often graced reception rooms rather than wardrobes. It introduced the sliding drawer, a revolution that finally allowed access to belongings without emptying everything out. Whether called a "jumping commode" [on high legs] or a "tomb commode," it is defined by its generous top and a façade rhythmically adorned with two or three rows of drawers.
