Description

Chistera ... in motion !!! Gant d'osier en forme de gouttière légèrement recourbée, que le joueur de pelote basque se fixe à la main et qui sert à renvoyer la balle contre le fronton. La pelote est reçue et renvoyée à l'aide d'un engin en osier : le chistéra. C'est comme une autre main immense et ployée, ajoutée à la main du pelotari. Un gant de cuir épais est cousu au haut du chistéra. L'homme y introduit ses doigts. Pesquidoux, Chez nous,t. 1, 1921, p. 171. Wicker glove in the shape of a slightly curved gutter, which the player of pelota pelota attaches to the hand and which serves to return the ball against the pediment.
