Coronation Chair History
The coronation chair, an ancient symbol of power, dates back to 1308 and was designed to hold the Stone of Scone, a significant artifact in Scottish history. After centuries of conflict, the stone was returned to Scotland in 1996, with the agreement that it would be used in future coronations. During the ceremony, the new monarch will hold the sovereign's orb and scepter, both integral to the ritual, highlighting the rich traditions that unite England and Scotland.In this clip
