A Semainier is a chest of drawers, usually tall and thin, originally intended for storing a week's supply of clothing, undergarments and or lingerie. Originating in 18th century France, semainier has come to mean any seven-drawer chest these days but the term is sometimes erroneously applied to tall thin lingerie chests with only six drawers. In Britain it is referred as a Chiffonier.
