Table bookrest, 17th century



Table lectern resting on a circular base and supported by a central stem, into which the height adjustment rod is inserted, with a mechanical device to tilt the brass lectern with blued steel parts, as well as the score holder on the front. The work is entirely worked with the "Boulle" technique: the conifer wood structure is entirely inlaid, on the front, base and trunk, in brass and tin alloy, on a heather briar background. The back is dark wood veneer, with brass threads.
