Each Traditional Balinese Sun Parasol features an exquisitely carved wooden pole, decorated with gold paint and crowned with a beautifully shaped, golden top knob.
Meanwhile the bright orange canopy has been hand printed with intricate gold leaf patterns, and is decorated around the edges with a fringe of hand woven tassels and a mix of wooden and golden, metallic beads. As well as adding a touch of glamour, this lovely fringing will help to keep off those pesky flies and insects in the summer.
The underside of the sun parasol canopy is as beautiful as the top. At the centre of the canopy, hiding the rods which help the umbrella to open and close, is a stunning, basket style weave of matching orange threads, forming a lovely conical or fan shape.
The Traditional Balinese Sun Parasol Umbrellas are delightfully easy to operate. To open the canopy, simply grasp the pole firmly and slide the wooden canopy base-piece up the pole. When the canopy is fully open, slot the wooden peg through the pole, using the hole provided. To collapse the sun parasol, just pull out the wooden peg, which is attached to the canopy by a piece of matching orange cord so it won’t get lost, and let the canopy gently close.
To avoid damage do not leave the parasol outside during wet and windy weather. These pretty garden umbrellas are designed to remain straight and there is no tilt facility.
