專家說明

Thomas Sheraton in The Cabinet Dictionary, London, 1803, p.202, described the dressing-chest as 'a small case of drawers...the uppermost of which is divided into conveniencies for dressing...there is sometimes a knee hole in the front...if they sit to dress, there must either be a dressing drawer to draw out, or a knee hole in the front when the dressing part is in a well under the top'. George Oakley, 'the most tasteful of the London cabinet-makers', was a subscriber to Sheraton's Dictionary.
