1 Kings 10:16-20

16King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of gold1 went into each shield. 17He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold; three minas of gold2 went into each shield. And the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.

18Additionally, the king made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with pure gold. 19The throne had six steps, and its back had a rounded top. There were armrests on both sides of the seat, with a lion standing beside each armrest. 20Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like this had ever been made for any kingdom.
