Perhaps you were trying to remember this...

“Peacock Throne, famous golden throne captured from India by the Persians in 1739. Thereafter lost, it (and its reproductions) remained the symbol of the Persian, or Iranian, monarchy.”

Peacock Throne sounds like the throne of Vasudeva Krishna. What a terrible loss.
