Designed by Ionna Vautrin and crafted by Bosc, Sista is the little sister of the Notre de Dame de Paris chair. The lines and proportions have been reworked, but the chair retains the humble yet noble appearance of its big sister, which stands in the Paris cathedral. Simple in appearance, Sista is an extremely sophisticated chair. The Sista chair by Bosc is particularly comfortable thanks to its curved seat and its backrest made up of two arches that hug and support the shape of the back. It stands out for its woodwork, manufacturing techniques and manual assembly in Bosc's Landes workshops. The result is a precious, but not ostentatious, piece of cabinetwork that highlights authenticity and French know-how.
