    What sets our Glastonbury Chair apart from others is the rich historic Latin script on the back and arms. Across the top of the back of this chair are the words "Monacus Glastome," identifying its place of origin, and on the arm are the phrases "God save him," "May the Lord give him peace" and "Praise be to God" On the inner face of the right arm is "Johanus Arthurus," The Latinized version of the abbey, for whom the chair was built around 1500.
