- "An etagere with chin figures and other small art objects; a small bookcase with richly bound books; the floor carpeted; a fire burning in the stove." (1135)
- I think the word etagere is some type of furniture because these scene is giving the layout of Helmer's residence.
- Etagere: a piece of furniture consisting of a set of open
shelves for displaying small objects and sometimes having an enclosed
cabinet as a base. (merriam-webster.com)
- My guess was close to the definition. The author is describing a piece of furniture with curls on the edges ("chin figures").
