Woolsack

The Woolsack is a traditional seat in the House of Lords, the upper chamber of the UK Parliament. It’s a large, stuffed cushion made from wool, symbolizing the UK's historical importance of wool and sheep farming. The Lord Speaker or other members sit on it during debates. The Woolsack serves as a regal and symbolic piece representing the UK's agricultural heritage and the enduring traditions of parliamentary debate, rather than having a specific functional purpose beyond seating.
