Love chair

The love chair (French: siège d'amour) was a tite device created by a French furniture manufacturer to allow the British King Edward VII to have sex with two women simultaneously.

[1][2][3] King Edward was known for his affairs with the most famous French aristocrats, prostitutes, actresses and cancan dancers;[4] his father, on learning of his licentiousness, described him as "depraved".

[5] He was a regular visitor to the most exquisite and lavish bordello of Victorian Paris, Le Chabanais, where the chair, designed specifically to cater for his copulatory tastes, was installed.

[5] At least three versions of the chair are known to exist including the original owned by the Soubrier family.

The other replica was put on sale in February 2020 by an antique furniture store in New Orleans for $68,000.
