What Is an Accent Chest?
An accent chest is a freestanding piece of storage furniture with multiple drawers, designed to serve both functional and decorative purposes. Unlike a standard dresser, an accent chest typically has a narrower profile and distinctive design details -- such as carved fronts, mixed materials, or eye-catching finishes -- making it suitable for living rooms, entryways, hallways, and bedrooms where space is limited.
What You Get With the Furniture Classics Merlin Chest
- Sustainably Grown Mahogany Construction -- crafted from responsibly sourced wood with a softly distressed cream finish that adds warmth without appearing overly aged.
- Three Fluted Drawers -- vertical grooves on each drawer front create visual texture while providing ample storage for clothing, linens, or personal items.
- Sleek Gold Metal Base -- the raised base elevates the chest off the floor, creating an airy silhouette and simplifying floor cleaning underneath.
- Matching Gold Drawer Pulls -- coordinating hardware ties the metal base to the drawer fronts, reinforcing the mixed-material design.
- No Assembly Required -- arrives fully assembled and ready to place in your bedroom or hallway.
- Compact Footprint -- at 19 inches deep, the chest fits against a wall or in narrow spaces without protruding into walkways.
How Do You Style a Bedroom Chest in a Living Room or Entryway?
Use the Merlin Chest in an entryway to store scarves, keys, and mail -- top it with a table lamp and a tray for a cohesive drop zone. In a hallway, pair it with a mirror above and a bedroom storage basket below the raised base for seasonal items. For a bedroom furniture arrangement, flank the chest with matching nightstands or position it opposite the foot of the bed as a focal point that balances a low-profile bed frame.
