In addition to this, it said that The King and The Queen Consort &ldquo;will be seated in Chairs of Estate and Throne Chairs at different points during the service.&rdquo;
Palace noted that the Throne Chairs were previously used by late King George VI and late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother during their coronation in 1937.
The Chairs of Estate, meanwhile, originally made by White, Allom, and Company, was used for the coronation of the late Queen Elizabeth II on June 2, 1953.
&ldquo;Their Majesties [King Charles and Camila] will be sat in the Throne Chairs for the Enthroning and the Homage,&rdquo; it said.
According to Buckingham Palace, the ciphers of King Charles and Queen Camilla have been embroidered in the two chairs.&nbsp;
