About the Velora 2 Door 4 Drawer Chest
This is the most versatile piece in the collection, because it does two jobs a plain chest of drawers cannot. The four central drawers handle folded clothes in the usual way, but either side sits a full-height cupboard with two adjustable shelves – and a shelf takes things a drawer never will. Handbags, shoe boxes, folded bedding, stacked jumpers that would crush in a drawer, or simply the awkward items every bedroom accumulates and has nowhere to put.
The shelves adjust in height rather than being fixed, so each cupboard can be set for what you actually need to store – three tall spaces or two shorter ones, different on each side if you like. They are 16mm thick, rated to 10kg each and supplied with angle supports, so they carry weight properly rather than bowing under it.
The proportions are what make it work as a bedroom piece. At 120cm wide and 81cm high it reads as a sideboard rather than a chest, with a usable surface across the top for a lamp, a mirror or framed photographs – and at 42cm deep it does not project into the room the way a true sideboard would. In a bedroom without space for both a chest of drawers and a blanket box, this replaces both.
It also works beyond the bedroom. The same piece sits comfortably in a hallway, a landing or a living room, where the cupboards take the things that would otherwise be on show and the drawers handle everything smaller.
The handles are the range signature: slim black bars with rounded ends, running horizontally across the doors and drawers alike. Across a 120cm front those lines do real visual work, and the symmetry of two long door handles either side of four shorter drawer handles is a large part of why the piece looks composed rather than assembled. They match the handles on the Velora wardrobes exactly.
Choose White for a cleaner, more contemporary look, or Champagne – a soft, faintly golden neutral – if the room is built around warmer tones.
Velora sits in the Rauch Blue range: functional, well-designed furniture made in Germany, combining reliable quality with strong value for money. It is 100% Made in Germany and carries both the Blue Angel and the Golden M ecolabels, Blue Angel being an independently verified low-emission certification.
The wider Velora collection includes wardrobes in White and Champagne with arched mirror doors, a 3 drawer bedside table (40 × 61 × 42cm), a 4 drawer narrow chest (40 × 81 × 42cm), and a 4 drawer wide chest (80 × 81 × 42cm).

FAQs
What is behind the two doors?
Each cupboard has two height-adjustable shelves, giving three usable spaces per side. Shelving takes what a drawer cannot – handbags, shoe boxes, folded bedding or stacked jumpers that would crush in a drawer.
Are the shelves adjustable?
Yes. Both shelves in each cupboard adjust in height, and the two sides can be set differently. They are 16mm thick, rated to 10kg each, and supplied with angle supports.
How is it arranged?
Four drawers in a central stack, with a full-height cupboard either side. The drawers sit in the middle of the 120cm width.
What are the dimensions?
120cm wide, 81cm high and 42cm deep. The height gives a usable surface for a lamp or mirror, and at 42cm it does not project into the room the way a true sideboard would.
Do the drawers have soft close?
No. The drawers on this model do not have a soft close mechanism.
How does it compare with the wide chest?
The 4 drawer wide chest at 80cm gives four full-width drawers and nothing else. This gives four narrower drawers plus two shelved cupboards, so it holds a wider variety of things – but less folded clothing. Choose this if you need somewhere for bulkier or awkward items as well as clothes.
Can it be used outside the bedroom?
Yes. At 120cm wide and 42cm deep it works as a hallway or landing unit, or in a living room, where the cupboards take what would otherwise be on show.
What colours is it available in?
White or Champagne, selected when you order. Both match the finishes used across the Velora wardrobes and other chests.
Does it come assembled?
No. This item is delivered flat packed and assembly is required.
Can I cancel or change my order?
No. This item is made to order by Rauch to your selected specification, so once the order has been processed it cannot be cancelled or amended. Please check your selected colour carefully before ordering.
How do I look after the surfaces?
The surfaces are easy to maintain and should be cleaned with a dry cloth only.
