[edit]The 'Lowboy' page this redirects to does not cover the contemporary UK use of the term 'dressing table' to denote a commonly-used piece of bedroom furniture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.153.96.67 (talk • contribs)

'Dressing table' and 'lowboy' are not synonymous
[edit]Having 'dressing table' redirect to 'lowboy' implies the terms are synonymous when they are not. A lowboy (an American term? One with which I am in any case unfamiliar) appears to be a type of dressing table; most dressing tables have a cut-out in the front panel as the lady using it would be seated; a large mirror; and drawers, perhaps a cupboard, on either side. A lowboy is, at most, an atypical dressing table. Zoe 13:42, 29 January 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zoe Buchanan (talk • contribs)

A free photo of the Ruhlmann piece
[edit]It would be great if someone is a friend of someone who knows the owner of the "Colonette dressing table" by Ruhlmann (see a picture here [1]) would snap a picture. This dressing table is important and beautiful. --Викидим (talk) 21:04, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- A free photo of the Rateau's dressing table (1925) in Art Deco style will be also appreciated (it is in the Met's collection, I am unsure if it is displayed today). --Викидим (talk) 07:00, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
