The word wardrobe was used by Chaucer to describe a privy. In the late middle ages it became a special room where clothes were hung in lockers or stored in chests. By the time of Hepplewhite's guide of 1788, the word is used to describe a free standing, fitted cupboard for clothes. This particular wardrobe is a typical Victorian style and has a hanging rail inside. Jane Laverick modified this kit to become a Charles Rennie Mackintosh style wardrobe in Dolls House World, issue 66, March 1998 Size: 4 x 1 3/8 x 6 |
