At Upstate Amish Furniture Gallery, we offer a wide selection of different styles of dressers and chests of drawers. This guide will help clear up some confusion on which is which and what works best for different spaces.
Each dresser and chest of drawers is part of a bedroom set. You can purchase an entire matching collection including a bed frame, nightstands, chest of drawers, dresser, and mirror. Many sets also include lingerie dressers or armoires.
Our Amish woodworkers expertly handcraft each piece with dedication and attention to detail. We guarantee that every item is heirloom quality and solid domestic hardwood. Years of experience and skilled hands allow our Amish partners to produce exquisite, unique pieces. The next generation of your family will thank you when you pass down these timeless styles.
Chest of Drawers vs Dresser
What is the difference between a dresser vs a chest of drawers? The main difference is that a chest of drawers has wide drawers stacked on top of each other for vertical storage. A dresser, on the other hand, usually has multiple columns of drawers for horizontal storage.
Storing clothing is the most common use for both chests of drawers and dressers. Folded clothing fits nicely in either, but lingerie drawers typically store more delicate pieces or even jewelry.
A lingerie dresser looks like a narrow chest of drawers but is the same height. Its drawers are usually thin and stacked but designs vary. Other names for this piece are a lingerie chest of drawers or a lingerie chest.
Large Bedroom Dressers
For each of our dressers, there is a mirror in the matching style. These two items pair well together because the low dresser height is ideal for supporting a large mirror. This creates a space perfect for storing makeup and jewelry boxes on the surface.
Our Washington 8 Drawer Tall Dresser has two columns of four drawers and measures 60 inches wide. Each drawer has two handles and indented panels. The top two are slightly smaller than the rest. This double dresser piece features shaker style tapered legs and a matching mirror is available as well.
Another great option is Our Jackson style. Available with either 7 or 9 drawers, this dresser has two columns of 2-3 drawers as well as three smaller drawers at the top. The Jackson Dresser features beveled edges and indented panels as well as two different handles.

If you are searching for a gray dresser for a bedroom, the Weston 7-Drawer Low Dresser is an excellent choice. The drawers share the same style as the Jackson, with three small ones near the top. This standard dresser has minimal detail and is modern yet simple and functional.
The Carrington 6-Drawer Low Dresser is a simple yet timeless style perfect for any space. It features two columns of three drawers with beveled fronts. It also displays rounded corners and tops and the base has an arched cutout.
The dressers described here are ideal for both bedrooms and living rooms. They have drawers for storing clothing as a dresser or movies and video games as an entertainment center. This is convenient if you ever move into a smaller bedroom space that doesn't have room for your entire bedroom set.
Small Bedroom Dressers, or Lingerie Dressers
Our Belmont 5-Drawer Lingerie Dresser features ornate trimming and moulding reminiscent of European luxury. These elaborate details require intricate woodworking from our skilled Amish artisans. This is certainly an eye-catching piece that elevates any bedroom.
