sedan chair

Enclosed chair for one passenger carried on poles by two or more bearers. Introduced into England by Sanders Duncombe in 1634, by the 18th century it was the equivalent of a one-person taxi. The name derives from an Italian dialect word for seat, rather than from the French town of Sedan.
