This beautiful lectern was crafted in France around 1475-1525 from a single piece of oak wood. Its unique form is that of an eagle, a powerful symbol associated with Saint John the Evangelist, who used this very image to convey his message. This stunning work of art is part of "Scan The World", a groundbreaking non-profit project initiated by MyMiniFactory.
