Lectern Desk - Antique Lectern Desk

Antique Lectern Desk

The antique is basically a lectern fitted with the conveniences needed to make writing easy, such as room for paper and writing implements. In a sense, it is a specialised and rarer form of standing desk. The term is sometimes used to describe large standing desks instead of "standing desk".

Because the antique lectern desk is smaller than most kinds of standing desks it is suitable for writing in cramped quarters, in a residence or at a workplace. Most lectern desks have a slanted top with a lip, to keep pens and paper from sliding down.

Usually yet sometimes lectern desks are in churches.
