Close view of the aged Coronation Chair at Westminster

A throne built to hold a stone—and a kingdom’s story.


Origins

  • Edward I commissions the chair (c. 1297–1300) to house the captured Stone of Scone.

The Stone


Today

  • The stone resides in Scotland; loaned back for coronations.
  • The chair shows centuries of wear; conservation stabilizes but preserves patina.

Bottom Line

Objects that turn ritual into reality.
