1599 Geneva Bible
18 And the throne had six steps, with a footstool of gold [a]fastened to the throne, and stays on either side on the place of the seats, and two lions standing by the [b]stays.
19 And twelve lions stood there on the six steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdom.
20 And all King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the wood of Lebanon were of pure gold: for silver was nothing esteemed in the days of Solomon.

2 Chronicles 9:18-20
New International Version
18 The throne had six steps, and a footstool of gold was attached to it. On both sides of the seat were armrests, with a lion standing beside each of them. 19 Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like it had ever been made for any other kingdom. 20 All King Solomon’s goblets were gold, and all the household articles in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Nothing was made of silver, because silver was considered of little value in Solomon’s day.
