At the same time, the word Acriptorium also meant the piece of furniture on which the monks wrote. With the passage of time and, above all, with the invention of printing, the term indicated only the room. A room in which the gentleman could devote himself to reading and studying his private collection of books and administering his property. A private studio inside your home. It was a not very large room which contained a small Writing Desk where you could place the necessary documents and manuscripts. Inside this room, in addition to the Ancient Writing Desk, there were small bookcases and shelves to hold everything you wanted to keep away from prying eyes, such as letters, for example.
