A chest is a piece of furniture that has been around for centuries. It is a very simple box like structure, consisting of four walls and a lid that is attached with hinges. The inside is often lined, and can be one big space or divided in smaller sections by partitions. Traditionally chests were used as a place to store valuable items, such as precious cloth or jewelry.

In olden days, a woman would bring all her prized possessions in a chest when she married. This would represent everything from her past life, and would be hidden away in her bedroom. Styles would vary from plain to ornately decorated, and would often come complete with a locking mechanism.

types of chest furniture

Traditional chests were created out of solid wood. Often aromatic woods such as Cedar would be used. This wood possesses natural properties that repel insects, and so is perfect for keeping moths and other insects at bay. Clothes could be stored wrapped in tissue, and would stay fresh for years.

This antique style of chest can still be found in houses that are decorated in rustic styles, but are rarely used to store clothing. Toys and board games are more likely to be found in this type of furniture, and would be kept in the living room, or children’s den.

Over the years, chest furniture has evolved in to more than just a simple box, to incorporating drawers. These chests of drawers have become one of the most important pieces of furniture in a bedroom, second only to the bed. The drawers provide a way to separate different types of clothing, and allow for easy access.

modern chest furniture

Modern style chest furniture is referred to as a chest of drawers and is mostly found in the bedroom. These are usually used in combination with a wardrobe to store clothes that do not need to be hung up.

These chests come with any number of drawers, and are a convenient way to keep clothes neatly folded and stored away. The drawers slide out to make it easy to see the contents, so you do not need to take everything out.

This style of chest stands at about waist or chest height, and can have deep or shallow drawers, or a combination of both. The top surface is often used to display ornaments, as well as perfume and makeup.

These can be made out of wood or other materials, and come in a variety of styles, to suit any bedroom decor.

uses for chests

The original style of chest furniture was a basic box, with a lid, and clothes and other possessions would be laid carefully inside. If you needed to find anything, then everything would need to be taken out, and then replaced again. This was not the most practical solution for storing every day goods, and so was mostly reserved for keeping items that were rarely used.

This box style would sit either at the end of the bed, or slide underneath. It provides a convenient storage space and does not take up much room. It can also be a great addition to a child’s bedroom, providing a place for toys to be kept tidy.

These traditional style chests can also be found in the dining room, and are often used to store table cloths and special china that is rarely used. In the living room, chest furniture could be placed in the corner and used to store board games to be brought out on long winter evenings.
