Edward VII chair


Not an ordinary chair, mind you. It's a "sex chair" commissioned by Edward VII and used in a French brothel. Details of its history (and use) are a bit too bawdy for this blog, but can be read here. This replica is apparently in a Prague museum; the original is now in private hands and still in use.
