An apron is a wooden panel that connects the surface and legs of a table or chair. It is placed at right angles to the underside of a tabletop or seat of a chair, and extends between the top of the legs. Aprons are also used on bottoms of cabinets and chests.

Reference: What is an apron on antique furniture?

Reference information:
An apron is a term used in antique furniture to describe the shaped section at the bottom of a chest or cabinet. This can be seen quite often at the bottom of antique wardrobes, presses and chest of drawers.
If you look at our Regency mahogany antique linen press it stands on splayed feet with a shaped apron.
