Our PARASA-501 is an ideal patio parasol and garden sun umbrella for every day use to generate cool shade whereever the sun shines. Made of natural bamboo and specially treated cotton it is not a heavyweight and it is easy to carry and to set up. PARASA-501 not only protects you, your friends and your family from searing sun shine in your garden or on your patio but they are also great to bring on the family picknick, camping, fishing trip. Also it will undeniably shape your outdoor surroundings with a special decorative cachet. This is why consumers often purchase not one but several items at the same time.

For similar reasons, PARASA-501 is also a popular practical and decorative item at outdoor and garden events such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, barbeques, fund raisers... Not surprisingly, PARASA-501 is also used indoors, where it may spend less shade but radiate colorful positive atmosphere, tinged with a pinch of Asian mystique. PARASA-501 is less well suited for particularly windy areas, as it is designed to be relatively light weight, easy to carry, easy to set up and take down, while it doesn't use much storage space.

Our Thai traditional cotton waterproofed parasols have a parchment-like texture and are often referred to as "paper parasols". PARASA-501 is used in Thailand mainly for protection from the sun but also as shelter from rain. It has been waterproofed with a leather oiling process. While these parasols are waterproofed, the natural water proofing is naturally not as durable as artificial fabrics such as plastics and other polyester materials. Good care will make this a long lasting parasol, rain or shine.
