Textus Libri: Caerimonia est sella sine dorso ad sedendum, thea bibendum et colloquendum destinata. Compages ex ligno iuglandis facta est et iunctionibus Sinensibus traditionalibus, more cardinis et foraminis, coniuncta. Structura materiae copiam adhibitam minuit, dum sedile in usu stabile et commodum manet. Superficies sedilis et crura machinis computatorio moderatis secantur, deinde manu poliendo perficiuntur. Sella ad compaginandum ab usore tradita est. Forma ad culturam ritualem Sinensem refertur, in qua sedere actus comitatis intellegitur.
