    lowboy dresser is a type of dressing table. It's typically a small table that is shorter and narrower than a standard dresser, with one or two rows of drawers.

    Lowboys are sometimes referred to as vanities. Vanity tables have also been variously known as dressing tables or makeup tables over the years, but no matter what we call them, and whether it's a sophisticated contemporary piece or an iconic vintage Luigi Massoni vanity, vanities have offered a special place for us to get ready for work, an early-morning appointment or lunch date or whatever lies ahead.
