Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to low chests of drawers often surmounted by a mirror and typically used in a bedroom or dressing room as a surface for grooming and to store clothing and toiletries. The term in this context is used primarily in America, and is derived from the European "dresser (cupboard)," which contains drawers and is surmounted by shelves, but is used to store kitchen utensils and dishes.
