EN: wardrobe, armoire
This is your lola's aparador. Not just any cabinet, but the big, heavy, often wooden one with a mirror, where she keeps her best clothes, old photo albums, and a distinct smell of naphthalene balls. It's the predecessor to the modern built-in closet.
From Spanish 'ropero' (from 'ropa' meaning clothes).
Considered a slightly old-fashioned term, but still understood by many. 'Aparador' is more common in modern usage.
