Thrones and Chairs of Tutankhamun -
I troni e le sedie di Tutankhamon
Inside Tutankhamun’s tomb (KV62), archaeologists found several thrones, chairs, stools, and even child-sized seats. These pieces show the luxury of the royal court and the everyday life of the young king.
⸻
1. The Golden Throne – The Most Iconic Piece
• Completely covered in gold foil.
• Decorated with colored glass, faience, and semi-precious stones.
• The backrest shows the famous scene where Ankhesenamun anoints Tutankhamun’s shoulders.
• Legs end in lion paws, symbolizing royal power.
• This is the most important and symbolic throne of the tomb.

2. The Ceremonial Throne
• Made of wood covered with gilding.
• Less rich than the golden throne but elegant and highly refined.
• Likely used during official ceremonies or palace rituals.
• Features classic royal elements: lion-leg feet, high back, and protective symbols.

Several chairs and stools were found, used in the palace during daily life.

• Small wooden stools with light designs.
• Some still have the original leather seat preserved.
