Pulpits & Lecterns
Chilton Church Antiques purchase and supply original pulpits of various shapes and sizes. The most common being either a 'rostrum' style with a wide front and stairs usually at each side, or the 'wine glass' style , which as its name suggests has the characteristics of a wine glass.
Pulpits can make a focal point in many building applications. We can also modify some pulpits to create counters or bars and we will always accommodate the needs of the client. We travel the whole of the UK sourcing pulpits and other church furnishings.
