Highboy Dressers

Tall, dark and handsome—a highboy dresser is everyone's type. Deemed the "wardrobe of the 18th Century," a highboy dresser will add an effortless antique touch to any digs. If you want to up the vintage voltage on your dresser game, this is the one for you. The best part? These vintage beauties are so much more than just funky-sounding furniture. Highboys are essentially a chest on top of a chest and we are totes aboard the "Why have one when you can have two?" philosophy. A highboy dresser has a wider base than a top and is easily recognizable by its ornate finishings. Those well-polished latches will add a subtle touch of pizazz without being over the top. For those trying to make the most of a small space by adding something off-scale, this dresser is a stylish way to add functional vertical decor to a room. Win win! Sometimes also called tallboy dresser, this vintage dresser is as spacious as a regular one (if not more!). Do not want to use this beauty as just a dresser? No problem. Show highboys some modern love and put a contemporary spin on this 18th Century smasher. Highboys make for uber cool mini-libraries and makeshift bars—can you say posh posh posh? When not being used as a bar, this gorgeous dresser will keep everything out of sight, standing pretty until the next time. We can’t really think of a reason to not get in line for a highboy.
