How the cabinets appeared and modernized: History

The prototype of modern cabinets and chests of drawers is a chest. This piece of furniture appeared in Italy. In this country, for the first time, they began to make not only practical furniture, but also furniture covered with painting, stone and mosaic gilding. The lockers of that time were like small palaces — their flat surfaces were decorated with inlaids from mother -of -pearl and ivory.
