Our timeless classic. A traditional pulpit silhouette built in 3/8" architectural glass on a solid oak base, so the congregation sees the person speaking rather than a wall of furniture. It suits a contemporary sanctuary and a traditional one equally well, which is why it is the most popular glass pulpit we sell.
Your church's logo or name is etched into the glass front panel at no extra charge. That is included in the price, not an upcharge.
KEY FEATURES
- Custom etched logo in the glass front panel, included free
- 3/8" architectural glass
- Solid oak book rest and oak base, in your choice of ten stains
- Recessed casters built into the base, so it moves without looking like it does
- Two corner shelves
- Height can be specified up to 3" taller or shorter than standard, at no charge
- Ships fully assembled
THE ETCHED LOGO
Most pulpits charge for branding. On the NC10, the etching is part of the piece: your church name, logo, or a cross is etched directly into the glass, and it is included.
Send artwork as a vector file with EPS included. If you cannot produce one, get in touch and we may be able to help. Logo designs include up to three rounds of changes. If you want the etching filled with color rather than left frosted, that is available as an option.
SIZING AND HEIGHT
Standard dimensions are 41"W x 24.5"D, standing 46" on the audience side and 40" on the presenter's side. The lower presenter height is deliberate: the pulpit reads full height to the room while the reading surface sits where it is comfortable to use.
If standard does not suit whoever preaches, the height can be built up to 3" taller or shorter at no additional cost. Tell us when you order. This is worth knowing before you settle for a compromise.
It weighs 145 lbs and ships fully assembled by freight. The carrier calls ahead to schedule a delivery appointment, so plan on someone being there to receive it. Lead time is approximately 12 weeks, since each one is etched and finished to order.
CHOOSING A STAIN
The oak base and book rest come in ten colors at the same price: Natural, Black Lacquer, Bombay Mahogany, Ebony, Jacobean, Early American, English Chestnut, Golden Oak, Red Mahogany and Red Oak. There is no premium stain tier on this pulpit.
Screens render wood tones unreliably. If you are matching existing pews, ask us before you order.
OPTIONS WORTH KNOWING ABOUT
- Tinted glass, if you want the panel smoked rather than clear
- Horizontal or vertical wood trim, or an all-wood top, to add more oak to the frame
- A microphone holder kit
- A full-color photoplate, which is your logo printed on an actual panel that is then attached to the podium
- Color fill of the etching, priced per color
The standard build already includes the wood base and book rest. The wood trim options add oak beyond that, so if you like the mostly-glass look, you do not need them.
MATCHING AND ALTERNATIVES
- NC10 Foundation Pulpit Set: this pulpit with a matching 60" NC41 communion table
- NC10W Foundation: the same design built mostly in wood with a glass panel, if you want more presence and less transparency
- NC2S Speaker: a smaller, simpler glass stand for tighter platforms
