Amish Chifferobes

Amish Chifferobes

Shop solid wood chifferobes handcrafted to order by Amish woodworkers in Ohio and Indiana. A chifferobe combines a wardrobe section for hanging clothes with a set of drawers, so one piece of furniture can do the work of a closet and a chest.

What Is a Chifferobe?

The name comes from combining "chiffonier" (a tall chest of drawers) and "wardrobe." Most chifferobes have a hanging-rod compartment on one side and drawers on the other, or drawers below a hanging section. They are especially useful in older homes, guest rooms and bedrooms with small closets.

Hinged-Door and Sliding-Door Chifferobes

Choose a traditional hinged-door chifferobe, or a sliding-door model when floor space in front of the piece is limited. Sliding doors need no swing clearance, which can help in tighter rooms.

Chifferobe vs. Armoire vs. Gentleman's Chest

An armoire is mostly enclosed storage behind doors. A gentleman's chest pairs drawers with door-covered shelves but usually no hanging space. A chifferobe is the option to choose when you need both hanging space and drawers. Browse all armoires and wardrobes.

Wood, Finish and Sizing

Hardwood species, stains, hardware and interior layout vary by model. Compare overall dimensions, hanging-rod height and drawer sizes on each product page before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a chifferobe replace a closet?
For many bedrooms it can, since it provides both hanging and drawer storage. Check the hanging-section height against your longest garments.

Can it match my bedroom set?
Yes. Most chifferobes belong to a bedroom collection, so coordinating beds, dressers and nightstands are available in the same wood and stain.
