chair
there isn't really a word for this in English; you can only discribe it:
"chair for at the head of the table";
may be
"main table chair".

may be
"main table chair".

se si parla di un tavolo
allora lascerei capotavola, magari aggiungendo table.
Si tratta di un tavolo con estensione/i sui lati del posto appunto a capotavola.
Poi ci sono anche le sedie capotavola e per quelle ti è già stata fornita una definizione.
Ciao
Cristina

At the head of the table is a large thronelike chair. There is a doorway leading off to the right, the left, and one behind the large chair at the head of the table.

The head chair, a massive leather thing, stood at the far end of the room. Behind that chair was a huge picture window, discretely covered with artfully marbleized blinds.
