Historically,
a pulpit is the elevated place or enclosed stage, in a church, in which the clergyman
stands while preaching. It comes from the Latin word ‘pulpitum’ meaning staging
or platform.
It is the place from where instructions of faith and morality flow and
thus, one of the centers of the church. Needless to say, the significance of
the pulpit in a place of devotion is undisputed.
Pulpits today:
Today pulpits are popular not just in religious gatherings but also in
boardrooms, auditoriums and conference and lecture theaters. Apart from
traditional wooden pulpits, today's pulpits are also made from metal and acrylic
with customized logos. Known to be placed in the area of attention, pulpits are
used to place microphones, laptops, tablets and books to assist in
presentations as well as decoration items like flower vases and pictures.
The Beauty of Glass Pulpits:
In this range, Impala Glass Industries, Nairobi, Kenya, brings the
exclusivity of classy and customized glass pulpits with long lasting finish which
offer modern designs as per contemporary tastes. Available in a variety of
shapes, sizes and colours—and also in the elegance of sandblasted glass-- these
glass pulpits are fashioned lovingly from toughened glass. Logos or designs can
be etched on these glass pulpits as per a client’s unique needs and
requirement.
The advantage of glass pulpits is its ability to
reflect light rather than obstruct it which may be the case in pulpits made
from wood or metal. Light is not obstructed and the result is an open and airy
area on the stage which does not take up much space.
Impala Glass Industries’ glass pulpits create the quality of drawing
focus on the speaker as they do not obstruct the speaker’s body and thus gives
more opportunity to the audience to connect with the orator.
