A reproduction of Saint Edward's Chair (The Coronation Chair)Season 1, Episode 5, 'Smoke and Mirrors'Gold-painted and simulated oak fibre-glass throne faithfully recreated after the Gothic original, the arched panelled back with downswept arms mounted with tan leather, with Gothic arched panelled sides above a solid seat and pierced quatre-foil frieze enclosing a fibreglass copy of the Coronation Stone of Scone (Stone of Destiny), supported by four lions on a plinth base, with red velvet upholstered squab cushions, together with golden canopy used during the filming of the scene, with turned handles, to be held by bearers; and the Art Department design drawing for the Coronation canopy, the chair: 117cm wide x 72cm deep x 211cm high, (46in wide x 28in deep x 83in high) (3)Footnotes:Commissioned by the Set Decorating department.The original Coronation Chair was made by order of Edward I at the beginning of the 14th century to enclose the Stone of Scone, which he brought from Scotland to Westminster Abbey in 1296. This Stone had originally been used in the Coronation of Scottish Monarchs but was seized during Edward's invasion of Scotland during the First Scottish War of Independence. In 1996 it was returned to Scotland and kept with the Scottish Crown Jewels when not required for Coronations. The Chair has been in use at Coronation ceremonies since 1308 when Edward II was crowned King of England, but it was not until Henry IV's crowning that it became the official chair for the ceremony. It was most recently used in May 2023 during the Coronation of King Charles III. Monarchs used to sit on the stone itself until a wooden platform was added in the 17th century.Carved from oak by Walter of Durham, the Coronation Chair is considered to be the earliest known piece of English furniture made by a known maker.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

However, the festivities back then were likely a lot more violent.Royal patronage dates back to 1848, when Queen Victoria first attended the event. She had a great love for Scotland, popularised the Highland Games, and continued to support the event for the rest of her life. The Games have been regularly attended by the British Royal Family since the Victorian era, with the current Royal patron being King Charles III.The activities at the Games today include highland dancing, piping, tossing the caber, putting the stone, throwing the hammer, sprinting, a relay race, a hill race up Morrone, long jump, tug of war and a children's sack race. The prize money for the winner today is over £12,000.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Gordon, James, of Rothiemay (1617-1686) Civitatis regiae, antiquissime et nobilissime Edinodunensis tabulam [Probably Amsterdam: F. de Wit, c.1690]. Bird's-eye view of Edinburgh from the south incorporating royal arms of Scotland top left, dedication to provost of Edinburgh Archibald Tod within decorative cartouche lower left, and large panel containing key to street and place names lower right, hand-coloured engraving on two sheets, mounted, framed and glazed, mount aperture 42.5 x 108cm [Cowan/Watson, Maps of Edinburgh 4a] The first properly cartographic printed view of Edinburgh, preceded only by the highly stylised depiction of the city in Braun and Hogenberg's Civitates orbis terrarum, published in the late 16th century and bearing little relation to the actual layout of the city except for the castle. Together with his father, Robert Gordon of Straloch, James Gordon drew up the maps of Scotland used by Johannes Blaeu in the Scottish and Irish volume of his Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, which appeared in 1654. In 1647 he was employed by Edinburgh town council to draw up a plan of the city, being rewarded with 500 merks and election as a burgess and guild brother for his efforts. Jeffrey C. Stone in ODNB states that ‘the plan was engraved and published in a rare first edition by Blaeu about 1650 and then by De Wit about 1695’. Cowan's Maps of Edinburgh does not cite a Blaeu edition; the present copy, however, lacks the imprint ‘F. de Wit Excudit Amstelodami’ next to the dedication cartouche mentioned in Cowan's description. There was an engraved facsimile published by R. Kirkwood in 1817, but this can be identified by its misnumbering of Tinnis Court as 51 instead of 31 in the key, and in any case contains a new title in the lower margin, not present here.
