Vintage stepladder in Formica, wood and chromed metal

Hello, Here is an elegant and sturdy stool lined with a stepladder, dating from the 60s. The seat is in white embossed formica, the two wooden steps which have grooves and a black rubber anti-slip strip. Aesthetically, this gives it a little extra elegance, which, for a utilitarian object, is not displeasing. The feet are protected by rubber tips, protecting the person perching on them and the ground, simultaneously. The originality of this beautiful stepladder is that its steps are not retractable, while the chrome metal guardrail can be considerably raised (up to 105 cm from the ground), using two small buttons to push towards the interior. It is in a very good state of conservation, bearing only very light and charming traces of time, visible in the photographs. It is truly an invention of the times which has not yet found a more competent replacement. Its weight is 4,220 kilograms. Thank you for your visit.
