	The bonnetiere is a single door cupboard with an interior shelf. &nbsp;It is made from indigenous wood and sometimes painted in the &nbsp;east of France. Its simple rustic appearance has led &nbsp;the antique bonnetiere to be very popular in country retreats in recent years. &nbsp;The name derives from the fact that it was once used for storing hats (bonnets) placed on stands in the cupboard.</p>
