ὁ δὲ θρόνος ποικίλος μὲν χρυσῷ καὶ λίθοις, ποικίλος δὲ καὶ ἐβένῳ τε καὶ ἐλέφαντί ἐστι·
The copular predicate is coordinated by the μεν...δε construction; ποικίλος agrees with θρόνος, while the dative groups express material/composition. The first ἐστίν is understood with the first μεν-clause and overt only at the end; ἐβένῳ is dative singular, coordinated with ἐλέφαντι.

καὶ ζῷά τε ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ γραφῇ μεμιμημένα καὶ ἀγάλματά ἐστιν εἰργασμένα.
The copular predicate has coordinated neuter plural subjects ζῷα and ἀγάλματα; μεμιμημένα and εἰργασμένα are perfect passive participles agreeing with them. γραφῇ is best read as a dative of means/manner with μεμιμημένα, though its exact construction is somewhat uncertain.

τῶν ποδῶν δὲ ἑκατέρῳ τῶν ἔμπροσθεν παῖδές τε ἐπίκεινται Θηβαίων ὑπὸ σφιγγῶν ἡρπασμένοι καὶ ὑπὸ τὰς σφίγγας Νιόβης τοὺς παῖδας Ἀπόλλων κατατοξεύουσι καὶ Ἄρτεμις.
The sentence has two coordinated predicates: ἐπίκεινται governs the dative ἑκατέρῳ and the genitive absolute-like description Θηβαίων ... ἡρπασμένοι, while κατατοξεύουσι is coordinated with Ἄρτεμις as a second plural subject; ὑπὸ σφιγγῶν is an agent phrase and ὑπὸ τὰς σφίγγας a locative phrase. The first ὑπό phrase modifies ἡρπασμένοι; the second modifies κατατοξεύουσι.
