FAQs

A semainier is a tall, narrow chest traditionally featuring seven drawers, one for each day of the week. Originating in 18th-century France, it was designed for efficient storage of personal linens and garments.

These pieces typically feature solid oak or pine secondary woods with luxury veneers such as flame mahogany applied to the exterior. Construction often incorporates hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawers and traditional mortise and tenon frames.

Authenticity is identified by hand-cut dovetails, timber shrinkage consistent with age, traditional hand-forged or cast brass hardware, and secondary woods appropriate to the period of manufacture.

A semainier works well as a sculptural storage solution in bedrooms or hallways, contrasting cleanly against neutral modern walls while providing vertical storage without occupying excessive floor space.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer cracking. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and occasionally apply appropriate natural wax to nourish the finish.
