Materials and characteristics of the church lectern

The choice of the right furniture for the place of worship is very important, and this also applies to the church lectern. In addition to the different shapes and sizes, you can also choose from a variety of materials, such as wood, metal or glass.

It is important to consider the durability of the material and its ability to withstand wear, considering that the lectern will be used frequently during celebrations. There are some features of these liturgical furniture that can be added to make them even more functional, such as integrated lighting to facilitate the reading of sacred texts when there is little light or during evening celebrations or wheels to allow it to be moved from one place to another more easily. 


The right choice is important to create the right atmosphere during the celebrations and to facilitate the work of priests and ministers.

Decorations and usability

The choice of the perfect decoration can make the lectern an element of great beauty and artistic value inside the church. You can choose one with decorative details, such as engravings or inlays, or use finely lectern covers to add a touch of color or personality and refinement to the sacred furniture.

The use of the lectern is particularly suitable for small churches, where space is limited and the presence of other elements could be intrusive.

The most used material for its realization is wood, thanks to its flexibility that allows it to be adapted to different liturgical needs. However, marble and bronze can also be used for table lecterns of great value, chosen to give a touch of elegance to the church.
