Penelope Parasols has re-conceived this iconic fashion accessory and re imagined it for today’s world, creating a product that is both stylish, functional, timeless, contemporary, casual and elegant.
Made with Quality materials, in timeless colors with understated designs, Penelope Parasols will be a lasting addition to any women’s wardrobe. In development is a limited edition collection, as well as a custom line of parasols incorporating handmade silk prints, carved handles and semi precious stones individually crafted for their clients.
The Parasol was first used as protection against the sun. “Para” meaning stop or shield and “Sol” translating to sun. Like any personal accoutrement, the parasol quickly became both a fashion statement and status symbol. The perfect parasol for the modern woman: the ideal combination of form and function, style and substance. 100% silk fabric, a shaft of solid hardwood with metal framework and brass-finish handle, ferrule and tips.
The dimensions are 21-5/8″ in length with a 23-1/2″ canopy diameter. Weighs less than half a pound.
Available in Noir, Crimson, and Nutmeg.
