The Sun Throne (Persian: تخت خورشید, romanized: Takht-e Khurshīd) also known as the Peacock Throne (Persian: تخت طاووس, romanized: Takht-e Tāvūs) is an Imperial throne of Iran. A radiant sun disk on its headboard and a consort of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar give the throne each of its names respectively. The throne has the shape of a platform, similar to the Marble Throne in Golestan Palace. The Naderi Throne was constructed later and has the appearance of a chair. Since 1980 it has been displayed at Iran's Central Bank.
