England
circa 1800
The unusual set of 18th Century metamorphic library steps is concealed in the form of a library stool. The recently upholstered hinged seat has been re-covered in blue leather hide and opens when the brass button is pressed to release the catch. The set of steps can be pulled out and the whole structure is supported on four mahogany tapered legs.
