tallboy
High chest, vertical
A tallboy is a tall, narrow chest of drawers, typically with five or more drawers stacked vertically.
In British usage, it may refer specifically to a chest-on-chest—a double dresser with one cabinet mounted atop another.
Tallboy also names an oversized beer can, typically 16 or 24 ounces: I grabbed a tallboy from the corner store.
