About the Item

Elevate your interior with this refined mid-century French library ladder in the Louis XIII style. Crafted circa 1960, the piece is made of solid walnut and features a graceful carved spiral design with four triangular steps, each upholstered in vibrant coral and red striped fabric that adds warmth and contrast to the rich wood grain. Turned baluster posts, molded edges, and double curved stretchers reinforce the classical styling, while the compact spiral form allows for both functionality and sculptural presence. A finial caps the top post, completing the architectural silhouette with a traditional flourish. Measuring 20 inches wide by 20 inches deep and 41 inches high, with the top step reaching 33 inches, this four-tier step ladder is ideal for a library, study, or as a decorative accent in a sophisticated interior. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use. Some visible stains on the fabric.
