Made with high quality Tin sign , size 8×12 in. with 4 predrilled small holes on the corns
Design: Known as a “free-flying” spiral staircase — it winds gracefully up three stories with no visible central support.
Engineering: Each step is cantilevered into the wall, so the entire stair seems to float.
Shape: An elegant oval stairwell, matching the house’s oval rooms.
Symbolism: Represented Charleston’s early 19th-century wealth, artistry, and ambition.
While the Russell House’s staircase is the most famous, other Charleston mansions also feature spiral or cantilevered stairs, but none as iconic.
These stairs are often highlighted in tourism brochures, preservation guides, and are a major draw for architecture enthusiasts.
The spiral staircase is considered one of the finest interior architectural features in America.
It’s a prime candidate for your Charleston Heritage tin sign series — either as a standalone design (“The Spiral Staircase, Russell House, 1808”) or integrated with the house’s façade.
