About the Item

A striking and substantial 19th century ecclesiastical bronze lectern featuring a majestic eagle with outstretched wings, symbolizing St. John the Evangelist. The eagle perches atop a finely detailed pedestal column, which rises from an iron base supported by three bold claw feet. The sculptural quality and patina of the bronze give this piece an imposing yet refined presence, making it a standout in any ecclesiastical, library, or decorative arts setting. The slanted wings act as a natural support for books or manuscripts. A rare and powerful architectural statement with timeless religious and artistic symbolism.
