The ancestor of the wardrobe: how a chest became a modern wardrobe

×

Not everyone knows that the modern wardrobe is a direct descendant of the ordinary chest. In the Middle Ages, the chest was the main place for storing things in the house. Young ladies carefully placed their dresses, underwear, jewelry, and other personal accessories there. Most often, the chest was located near the bed, serving not only as a storage place but also as a convenient seat or even a table.

Over time, fashionistas’ wardrobes became larger and larger, and the need for more spacious and organized storage grew. Chests began to be improved — separate compartments, drawers, and shelves appeared. Step by step, it turned into the wardrobe we know today — an ergonomic and stylish piece of furniture that is hard to imagine any home without.

The Garant furniture factory continues this centuries-old tradition, manufacturing all types of wardrobes — from classic hinged models to modern sliding door wardrobes. Our range includes two-, three-, and four-door options of various widths, so that everyone can find the optimal solution for their interior. You can find more detailed information about the models on our website or in the catalog.
