Marble Throne of a late 4th Century BC, Queen from a tomb at Aegae, Greece.

Throne was found in another royal tomb close by tomb of Eurydice I by K. A. Rhomaios in 1938. It was in pieces, but has since been reconstructed and it has sphinxes as supporters for both arm rests and also royal Macedonian starbursts at head of its back panel.

Aegae was original capital of Macedonians, an ancient kingdom in Emathia in northern Greece, also burial-place of Macedonian kings, Vergina.
