A beautifully made antique wooden book stand, originally from a church, where it would have been used to hold hymn books or service texts. Crafted from solid wood with gently shaped ends and cut-out handles, it has a reassuring weight and a simple, honest form that feels timeless.
The wood has a rich, dark tone with a softly aged surface, showing subtle marks and wear from years of use - all part of its story and character. The slanted base makes it perfect for displaying books open or upright, whether on a kitchen counter, dresser, shelf or child’s room.
Approx dimensions: 46 x 20 x 17.5cm
