In Christianity, a moveable feast or movable feast is a holy day – a feast day or a fast day – whose date is not fixed to a particular day of the calendar year but moves in response to the date of Easter, the date of which varies according to a complex formula. Easter is itself a "moveable feast".[citation needed]
By extension, other religions' feasts are occasionally described by the same term. In addition many countries have secular holidays that are moveable, for instance to make holidays more consecutive; the term "moveable feast" is not used in this case however.
By metaphoric extension, a movable feast was used by Ernest Hemingway to mean the memory of a splendid place that continues to go with the moving traveler for the rest of life, after he has had the experience of it and gone away. The author used the term A Moveable Feast for the title of his late-life memoirs of his early life as a struggling writer in Paris in the 1920s. He said to a friend: "If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast."[1]

| The front panel of this cassone represents the conquest of Trebizond, on the Black Sea, by the Ottoman Turks under Sultan Mehmed II on August 14, 1461. This event resulted in the ouster of the Venetians from Constantinople and the gift of their property to the Florentines. The side panels of the cassone are decorated with the crest 紋章（の頂部）of the Florentine Strozzi family. |
cassone (käs-sô'nā) , the Italian term for chest or coffer, usually a bridal or dower chest, highly ornate and given prominence in the home.
Among furniture types, a cassone is a rich and showy type of chest, which may be painted, carved and gilded.
The cassone ("large chest") was one of the trophy furnishings of rich merchants and aristocrats in Italian culture, from the Late Middle Ages onward. The cassone was the most important piece of furniture of that time. It was given to a bride and placed in the bridal suite. It would be given to the bride during the wedding, and it was the bride's parents's contribution to the wedding. Since a cassone contained the personal goods of the bride, it was a natural vehicle for painted decoration commemorating the marriage in heraldry and flattering allegory. The side panels offered a flat surface for a suitable painting, with subjects drawn from courtly romance or from Scripture or holy legends. Some Tuscan artists in Siena and Florence specialized in such cassone panels, which were preserved as autonomous works of art by 19th century collectors, who sometimes discarded the cassone itself. Great Florentine artists of the 15th century were called upon to decorate cassoni.
A typical place for such a cassone was in a chamber at the foot of a bed that was enclosed in curtains. Such a situation is a familiar setting for depictions of the Annunciation or the Visitation of St. Anne to the Virgin Mary. A cassone was largely immovable. Chairs were reserved for important personages. Often pillows scattered upon the floor of a chamber provided informal seating, and a cassone could provide a backrest and a table surface. The symbolic "humility" that modern scholars read into Annunciations where the Virgin sits reading upon the floor, perhaps underestimates this familiar mode of seating.
In the 15th century, a new classicising style arose, and early Renaissance cassoni of central and northern Italy were carved and partly gilded, and given classical décor, with panels flanked by fluted corner pilasters, under friezes and cornices, or with sculptural panels in high or low relief.
A cassone that was provided with a high panelled back and sometimes a footrest, for both hieratic and practical reasons, becomes a cassapanca ("chest-bench"). Cassapanche were immovably fixed in the main public room of a palazzo, the sala or salone. They were part of the immobili ("unmoveables"), perhaps even more than the removable glazed window casements, and might be left in place, even if the palazzo passed to another family.
A cossone is a High Renaissance piece of furniture resembling a chest. Used to sit on, eat on, sleep on, and store things in. When a couple was married it was typical for the bride's parents to give a cassone as a gift to the family who their daughter was marrying into as a consolation for the finical responsibilities they have taken which come along with the new bride. A cassone typically had a molded base with claw feet. This piece was used as a console table as well
