The Golden Lion Throne was the seat of power for the Padishah Emperor of the Known Universe in the Dune universe. It existed for over 80 generations.

The Throne was originally on the planet Kaitain, until, by the order of Paul Atreides, it was moved to the planet Arrakis.

The Book and Movie[]

In the 1965 book version of "Dune", the Throne was described to be a single piece of Hagal quartz-bule-green translucency shot through with streaks of yellow fire.

In the 1984 movie of "Dune", the Throne was actually shaped and molded into a lion, made of solid gold.
