I'd call that a dressing table.

The term you're looking for, Coconut, is a 'dressing table', also called a 'vanity (table)' in the US.

Hi Conchita
You're right about the word "vanity". And sometimes you will find both terms combined:
vanity dressing table
:lol:

Hi Yankee,
Thats mean two words are right and we can combined in one word (vainty dressing table)also (dressing table only without vainty is right)?
Am I right?
By the way your name is Yankee or Amy?

Hi Coconut
In the US, I would expect most people to use either "dressing table" or "vanity". However, the word "vanity" is also used to refer to something you find in most bathrooms -- a "bathroom vanity". To my way of thinking, a vanity in a bathroom would always include a sink.
I'd expect to find a "dressing table" in a bedroom, but not in a bathroom. And I would not expect a "dressing table" to have a sink. However, this is just the way I look at these words and other people might use them a little differently.
My real name is Amy.
One of the reasons I chose "Yankee" as my forum name is that by the time I registered here, someone else had already registered as "Amy".
