Evident from the softly worn patina, this ladder was originally used indoors to access grain storage. Carved from a naturally forked tree, indoor versions wear to a smooth glossy finish while outdoor versions develop a deeply weathered patina. The foot of the ladder that sat on the ground, has eroded away, adding to the visual height, drawing the eye up the length of the ladder.

Height on Custom Display Stand: 66.5 in. / 169 cm
