AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage double-sided desk lectern, very common in libraries, studios, or clerical institutions.
Characteristics of this type of lectern:
Shared Use: Being two-faced, it allows placing two open books or documents simultaneously (one on each side), optimizing space on a study or research desk.
Ergonomic Reading: The pronounced tilt of the surfaces was designed specifically to improve posture during prolonged reading or writing, preventing the user from leaning over the desk.
Portability: The ability to fold completely flat makes transport and storage of the lectern easier when the desk needs to be cleared.
Approximate average dimensions - 50×50×57 cm
