1 Kings 10:20 BBE

¹⁸  Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.

¹⁹  There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;

²⁰  And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

²¹  And all King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.

²²  For the king had Tarshish-ships at sea with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the Tarshish-ships came with gold and silver and ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
