A small chamber or a diminutive private room, often used in architecture or for personal quarters.
From 'chamber' plus the diminutive suffix '-let' (from Old French '-elet'). This suffix, found in words like 'piglet' and 'booklet', creates the sense of something small or cute.
The '-let' suffix is a medieval invention—monks and scholars started attaching it to nouns to show affection or smallness, which is why 'chamberlet' feels cozy rather than grand, even though it describes a private room.
