I climbed up (and down!) this staircase…during a recent visit to the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont.
It is located inside the Electra Havemeyer Webb Memorial Building. Named after the museum’s founder. The building is a recreation of 6 rooms from Mrs. Webb’s 1930’s Park Avenue apartment in New York City. Complete with her collection of French Impressionist paintings and unique furniture.
Electra Havemeyer Webb founded the Shelburne Museum in 1947. This building was completed in 1967.

So welcome. My appreciation for fine woodwork comes from my grandfather, God bless him. As a child I remember him always running his hands over wood, feeling the grain and admiring it. ❤️
