Wonder if it’s related to the (mostly “Southron”?) “chiffarobe” or “shiffarobe”?

Isn't a chifferobe one of those pieces of combo furniture where there are drawers down one side and a long hanging space on the other? Those seemed to be something that people bought for their children in the 1920s. Often painted white.
