This traditional Japanese folding step ladder combines utilitarian design with understated elegance. Constructed in solid hardwood with a mellow patina, the A-frame form is secured by metal hinges, allowing it to fold neatly when not in use. The ladder’s simplicity is offset by the character of its wear—each scuff and grain line a testament to its working life. Whether used as a functional tool or repurposed as a sculptural accent, it offers a quiet nod to Japanese craftsmanship and everyday artistry.
