An original 1913 J.R. Clark Co. “Rid-Jid” folding step ladder stool — a patented American utility design known for its durability and clever engineering.
Constructed of solid wood with original iron stabilizing braces, this early 20th century piece was designed to fold flat while remaining exceptionally sturdy when open. The curved iron support arms are a signature element of the Rid-Jid design, providing stability without bulk.
The round seat gives it versatility — functioning equally well as a working ladder, side table, plant stand, or sculptural accent. The warm, timeworn wood shows over a century of honest use, adding depth and authenticity that cannot be replicated.
Originally patented in 1913, J.R. Clark Co.’s Rid-Jid ladders were marketed as safer and more rigid than standard folding ladders of the time — hence the name.
Dimensions; 12.5 l x 21.5 w x 23.5 h
