A chifforobe is a type of furniture that combines a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, typically used for storing clothing. It usually features a tall, upright design with a hanging space for clothes on one side and drawers for smaller items on the other. The name is believed to be derived from a blend of the words "chiffonier" and "wardrobe." Chifforobes were particularly popular in the mid-20th century and are often made from wood.
