The French Dresser: Where to Buy an Affordable French Chest of Drawers

In this post:  Looking for a French dresser with great style at a reasonable price? This shopping guide offers where to buy an affordable French chest of drawers.⇒

The French Dresser | 24 Affordable French Style Chests of Drawers - designthusiasm.com

Are you romanced by furniture?

Sometimes I wonder if I’m strange.

But I do look at pieces of furniture and want to buy them “just because”. I love French decorative details and gorgeous wood patina. Distressed paint, sinewy curves, gilt trim and wonderful hardware – sign me up!

Today’s shopping guide was inspired by a few design projects I’ve been working on for clients. I already own a few of these chests, but I’d love to get a couple more. What room couldn’t benefit from a charming French dresser?

While I absolutely love authentic vintage pieces, the great news is there are many affordable reproduction options available, as well. Below you will find a variety of styles, from smaller 2 drawer pieces that could fit into a tight corner to taller chests that provide ample storage.

There are bombe chests, painted accent dressers, glazed pieces, aged finishes, 3 drawer options, as well as 5 drawer ones too. There are Swedish Gustavian looks, in addition to Louis Phillipe style, plus rustic commodes, and distressed or reclaimed woods.

When I first put this post together, the market was quite different, so prices have increased some.  What one person perceives as affordable, others do not, so I did my best to include as many low priced options as I could find.

I kept as many pieces as possible in the 3 digit range, but particularly for the larger pieces there are a few over $1000. Please remember, for some people, a $1500 dresser is still more affordable than a $5000 antique. At the same time, at this writing, there are lots of pieces included that are as low as a few hundred dollars!

Note: I update the post from time to time, trying to keep the links fresh, but stores run out of stock faster than I can update my posts. So if you find some dead links, please know they will be updated soon, and you’re welcome to alert me as I might be able to help find something you are looking for.

Take your time and scroll through them all – there are plenty of options here to consider. Then let’s see if you can guess which one I’ve got my eye on next! Happy shopping!!

    Like these, thanks for posting. I am surprised that Target had that one, and really like it. I need to find a chest at some point for the powder room sink, these are good ideas.

      I’ll take 1 of each! Which one do you have your eyes on? I’m looking for a chest to use as a vanity in my half bath. Lots of good choices here. Thanks for putting these together!

    I love French style chests. Like you, I’d like to have several of your selections! I already own 3 Bombay style chests and one small cabinet that has a curved door. I don’t need another chest but that doesn’t mean I don’t want one!

    I agree that dressers can be very good options to have some good quality wood furniture in my home. I’ve been getting fond of buying more loungewear recently since I stay at home most days. Having a new dresser for those kinds of clothes will probably help me manage my clothes a lot easier.

And yet, when it comes to her home, it's as peaceful and calming as you can possibly image. Yes, it oozes signs of her talent and creativity, but it's ever so serene in the best possible way! I just love this dichotomy because I find both sides of KariAnne to work perfectly together.  Be sure to check out her page to see what I mean.  You won't be disappointed... 🙌😀
