Tall Dressers For Sale on 1stDibs

Find a variety of tall dressers available on 1stDibs. The range of distinct tall dressers — often made from wood, metal and walnut — can elevate any home. We have 562 antique and vintage tall dressers in-stock, while there are 9 modern editions to choose from as well. Tall dressers have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 21st Century. Mid-Century Modern, Scandinavian Modern and Art Deco tall dressers are consistently popular styles. Not every interior allows for large tall dressers, so small tall dressers measuring 14 inches across are available at 1stDibs. Paul McCobb, American of Martinsville and Lane Furniture each produced beautiful tall dressers that are worth considering.

How Much are Tall Dressers?

The average selling price for at 1stDibs is $2,855, while they’re typically $495 on the low end and $24,000 highest priced.

Finding the Right Dressers for You

Antique, new and vintage dressers are a staple in any household. Whether it’s a 19th-century solid pine or oak Welsh kitchen dresser you’re using to store tableware or a Broyhill Brasilia highboy in your bedroom, these furniture fixtures are essential for making the most of your space.

The first step in finding the perfect dresser is considering your particular needs. Most tall dressers offer anywhere from five to seven drawers, essentially allowing for the organization of an entire wardrobe, while shorter, waist-height dresser varieties can be equipped with a convenient vanity mirror.

highboy dresser is usually around six feet tall, with some versions standing even taller at seven feet or so. Highboys, which began to appear with frequency during the early 17th century in England, are essentially very tall dressers with lots of drawers, whereas a lowboy is a different type of storage furniture in that it's a dressing table with one or two rows of drawers. 

When shopping for your antique or vintage dresser, consider those that bear the hallmarks of solid construction. Good furniture means making an investment, and solid hardwood pieces of maple, walnut or cherry will prove far more durable than a bedroom dresser made of particleboard.

If you’re looking for a mid-century modern case piece that boasts a subdued pairing of wood grains and uncomplicated drawer pulls, browse elegant dressers designed by Florence Knoll, Harvey Probber, Paul McCobb and other furniture makers associated with the celebrated style on 1stDibs. 

Dressers characterized by bolder designs are also popular: Not only will your new piece of furniture be a storage solution, but it'll also make a statement.

Art Deco furniture makers preferred to work with dark woods and typically incorporated decorative embellishments. An ornately carved French or Italian Art Deco dresser complete with vanity mirror and cabriole scrolled feet might better complement the other pieces in your home. Alternatively, if you favor sumptuous antique furniture with curving lines and floral flourishes, the collection on 1stDibs also includes sophisticated 1800s-era Victorian walnut dressers and washstands with marble tops.

After all, a good case piece isn’t merely for minimizing clutter in your space. The style of your chosen dresser and its specific attributes should add something to your decor and your home. Modern creations include one-of-a-kind shapes, like the venturesome chests of drawers in leather, marble and wood crafted by the likes of Roberto Cavalli.

Explore a broad array of antique and vintage dressers today on 1stDibs.

    What a tall dresser with drawers is called depends on its design. A one-piece tall dresser may be referred to as a vertical dresser or a vertical chest of drawers. On the other hand, a tall dresser that consists of two sections stacked one atop the other is a highboy or a tallboy. Shop a large selection of dressers from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021
    A tall narrow dresser is also likely called a chest of drawers. Standard chests of drawers are tall and narrow. So, what makes a chest of drawers different from a common dresser? Dressers are short, and chests of drawers are overall taller pieces of furniture that typically do not have room on the top for a mirror as most dressers do. Find dressers and chests of drawers on 1stDibs.
