About the Item
Add sophistication and functional charm to your interior with this elegant set of Edwardian library steps. Crafted in England circa 1920, the three-step ladder is constructed from richly figured mahogany and exhibits the graceful lines and restrained refinement typical of the Edwardian period. The warm, lustrous patina enhances its classic appeal, while the gently curved front and turned legs provide a balanced and tailored silhouette.
Each step is inset with its original oxblood red leather panels, embossed with gold tooling for added visual interest and traction. Thoughtfully designed for dual purpose, the top two steps lift to reveal hidden storage compartments, ideal for keeping reading glasses, stationery, or personal treasures neatly tucked away.
In excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with minor wear to the leather and finish that only enriches its timeworn character. A handsome and practical antique, perfect for a traditional library, gentleman’s study, or beside a tall bookcase.
