Description from the seller

Victorian Style Spiral Library Steps in Solid Wood, England, 1960

Manufactured in England.
Year of manufacture: 1960.

This freestanding spiral-form library step unit is designed for accessing elevated shelving while functioning as a compact corner piece. The structure combines three ascending triangular steps with a turned central support column and curved stretcher rails, reflecting Victorian-inspired interior utility furniture.

Condition is structurally stable. Surface shows visible wear, including scratches and finish loss on the step edges and around the central column consistent with use over time. It will be delivered exactly as shown in the photographs; please examine the images carefully. The stair handrail bar will be detached for shipping.

The value lies in its distinctive spiral configuration and dual functionality as both a practical step ladder and a decorative interior element. The turned wood construction and compact footprint make it suitable for library, study, or display environments.

This piece reflects mid-20th century European production interpreting Victorian-era functional forms, particularly designed for domestic libraries and reading rooms.
