The throne of Thailand, formerly Siam, was in the news lately for the coronation of the new king. For the coronation of Rama VII it was pictured on a set of stamps in 1926. The royal umbrellas are many-tiered.  |

The second in the Thailand throne set of 1988 for King Rama IX. A slightly smaller throne, maybe for business meetings. But the umbrella is very impressive.  Hi Alexey, The "Rendevous" is a lovely addition; it's amazing how many Japanese works of art have been found for the thread. K. |

The third throne and umbrella stamp in the 1988 set for Rama IX. The boat-like throne has a canopy as well. This is the Phuttan Kanchanasinghat Throne in the Amarin Winitchai Throne Hall, the Grand Palace.  |

Another throne in the set for the Royals in 1988. This one is a beautiful gilded ottoman under an umbrella for the Queen. Sirikit is the mother of the newly crowned King Rama X.  |

King Bhumibol was also honored on another set of stamps in 1996 for his golden jubilee. The large tiered umbrella behind the throne looks golden as well.  |
