The high curved back of the Ceremonial Throne of Tutankhamun is fitted to a stool with crossed legs carved to represent the necks and heads of ducks. The deeply curved seat (designed to hold a cushion) is inlaid with ebony and ivory in imitation of a spotted animal skin.

It is often called ‘Tutankhamun’s Ecclesiastical throne’ in association with the bishop’s seats of the middle ages in Europe. It was most probably used by the king during hunting and we deduce this from the decoration especially on the seat of the throne.
