Another Great Auction 11th December
A portable book stand or lectern, constructed from dark-stained wood, featuring a rectangular central panel of pierced brass or bronze. The metalwork displays an intricate, repeating geometric and stylized quatrefoil pattern, consistent with Jali-style design. The stand is designed with a hinged back support for adjustability and includes a braided rope with two small metal weights, presumably for holding pages. A small, stylized metallic “9” or similar symbol is embedded into the lower left corner of the wooden frame.
Approximately 12.5 inches (31.75 cm) wide.
