19th C. American Brass Ecclesiastical Revolving Dual Sided Lectern/ Music Stand

About the Item

19th Century American Brass Ecclesiastical Revolving Dual Sided Lectern/ Music Stand USA, 1871 A Remarkable piece of 19th-century American ecclesiastical workmanship: a Brass Revolving Dual-Sided Lectern/Music Stand, from the USA dated 1871. Made in the classic Gothic style, this lectern exudes both elegance and functionality. At its center, the lectern features a dual-sided book rest, allowing for the simultaneous display of two books or sheets of music. The brass construction lends durability and a timeless aesthetic to the piece. While the height of the bible rest remains fixed, its revolving mechanism enables seamless access to both sides of the lectern. Standing at a total height of 63 inches, this lectern commands attention in any setting, be it a church, music hall, or private library. The stationary book rest alone measures inches high by 18 inches wide, providing ample space for large volumes or musical scores. An added layer of historical intrigue comes from the engraved inscription: "Inna Louisa Knor/A. G 1871," accompanied by religious symbols and the phrase "In Raram Memoriam/Matris Dilrria," adding depth to its provenance. This exquisite lectern stands as a testament to the artistry and devotion of its era, offering both practicality and aesthetic allure to discerning collectors or institutions seeking a piece of American religious heritage.
