From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treasurer of the Chamber was a position in the British royal household, separated in 1485 from that of the Master of the Jewel Office and in the department of the Lord Steward. It was an important office of finance under Henry VII and Henry VIII, before the revival of the Exchequer. The office was abolished in 1782.
