Its pull-out top adds a valuable extra surface while maintaining a measured size that is easy to place. A second-hand piece, it bears the marks of its history: some traces of time. Length: 61 cm Length of the extended top: 32 cm Width: 43 cm Height: 75 cm Drawer height: 11 cm and 26 cm A brief history of the chest of drawers Its name says it all: it was born to be "convenient," replacing deep chests where everything was piled haphazardly. It appeared during the reign of Louis XIV and 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. Whether called a "high-footed chest of drawers" or a "tomb chest," it is defined by its generous top and a facade rhythmically arranged with two or three rows of drawers.
