About the Item

Crafted in France circa 1880, this exceptionally tall pine library ladder embodies the practical elegance of late 19th century design. Measuring 116 inches high, the piece is built with two sturdy side rails and eleven evenly spaced round rungs, offering secure footing when accessing the upper reaches of a bookcase or armoire. The pine has developed a warm, natural patina over more than a century, enhancing its rustic charm. Metal-reinforced side mounts suggest it was originally designed to hook or slide along a rail, making it ideal for a library, boutique, or tall kitchen installation. Solid and functional, this antique ladder is both a decorative accent and a utilitarian tool, perfectly suited for spaces where height meets style. Dimensions: 116″ H x 14″ W x 2.5″ D.
