A semainier is a traditional tall, narrow chest of drawers typically featuring seven drawers, one for each day of the week, originating in France during the 18th century.

These pieces are typically constructed from a secondary softwood frame veneered in fine hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, often accented with brass stringing, mounts, and a marble top.

Authentication involves examining construction methods such as hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer boxes, older secondary timbers, traditional veneer thickness, and natural wear patterns on the brass hardware and marble.

A semainier serves as vertical storage in a bedroom or hallway, contrasting effectively against neutral contemporary walls while providing practical organisation with a minimal floor footprint.

Maintain the wood by applying microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the finish, avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading, and clean the marble top using a damp cloth without acidic cleaners.
