Antique Yacht or Sailing Ship Boarding Ladder

A late 19th to early 20th century 5 rung boarding ladder once used aboard a classic yacht or tall ship. This old seafaring ladder features mahogany steps and intricately tied rope work and whipping. Measures 18 inches wide, 5 1/2 inch step depth and 54 inches tall exclusive of additional rope for cleating off onto the bulkhead. Can be used today as a hanging bookshelf, bunk bed steps or hung as a nautical wall decor. Great old maritime artifact!
