chiffonier, n.
A narrow high chest of drawers or bureau, often with a mirror attached.
“One day I found that the drawer at the bottom of the chiffonier, replete with mothballs, was filled with shawls, white, green, lilac. Stacked amid a great smell of camphor--it was like a shop; I didn’t have the nerve to ask her what she planned to do with them. ”
--Julio Cortazar, “House Taken Over”
