Coming directly from the National Library of France (BNF), this stepladder is an authentic testament to the heritage and functional furnishings of major institutions.
Made entirely of solid oak, it is distinguished by its robustness and functional design. Its structure is both sturdy and elegant, with a sculpted handrail that assists the ascent. Its sled-like base, 95 cm deep, provides remarkable stability, originally designed for intensive and safe use in high-ceilinged libraries. The stepladder is presented in its original, unused condition.
It has retained a superb and deep original patina, with the marks of time and use that tell its story and add to its unique character. A piece of character, as functional as it is decorative, ideal for a large private library, an office, or as a unique decorative element in a refined interior.
