A semainier is French for “seven-drawer dresser,” and was originally meant to hold a weeks worth of clothing. (It was rough being royalty!) Of all my Tip-Top pieces, this is the design I have repeated the most, and is the most enjoyable to build. People are drawn to the drawers, and I like the graduated, cascading knobs.
