Originally introduced in the Regency period and becoming hugely popular during the Victorian era, chiffoniers remain highly sought after by collectors, interior designers and antique furniture enthusiasts alike. Values can range from a few hundred pounds to several thousand depending on age, quality, rarity and condition.
From period dramas and detective series to luxury fashion campaigns and cinematic country house interiors, antique props play a vital role in creating believable worlds on screen.
