Both dressers and drawers are the oldest, but at the same time the most comfortable items of furniture. The first information about the use of chests of drawers and drawers for laundry refers to the seventh century, when in the understanding of people these objects looked like low cabinets endowed with two drawers. It is assumed that the progenitor of the pedestals and chests of drawers was a chest, which served not only as an object for storing laundry, but also as a bed.
Improving the welfare of families led to an increase in the amount of clothing and bed linen purchased, which led to an increase in the size of the chest and the need to organize drawers in it. Having won great popularity in France, chests with boxes were renamed into chests of drawers and pedestals for linen, becoming an indispensable attribute of any room.
Masters cabinetmakers made chests of drawers and pedestals for clothes from various species of trees, but the walnut, oak and pine trees were very popular. The greatest value was represented by white curbstones and chests of drawers with inlaid from mother-of-pearl and ivory, which were not just a place for storing things, but a piece of interior that pleases the eye.
