About Familial Sella
Familiaris est sella lignea ad usum tam puerorum quam adultorum destinata. Simplici motu sella evertitur atque in secundam formam convertitur. Una igitur suppellex duobus aetatis generibus inservit, quod spatium servat et copiam materiae necessariae minuit. Figura et anguli sellae ita perpoliti sunt ut sedes ergonomica et commoda maneat. Familiaris ad angustiora habitacula urbium frequentium respondet, ubi suppellex multiplicis usus utilis est. Consilium speciem et functionem aequo pondere componit.
