Image description

The sedia gestatoria, literally 'chair for carrying' or gestatorial chair is a ceremonial throne on which popes were carried on shoulders until 1978, and later replaced outdoors in part with the popemobile. It consists of a richly adorned, silk-covered armchair, fastened on a suppedaneum, on each side of which are two gilded rings; through these rings pass the long rods with which twelve footmen carry the throne on their shoulders.
