After many requests for a long handle "walking stick" parasol umbrella, I am now offering the handle and tip in your choice of lengths to accommodate your height. This walking stick is not meant to be a walking aid nor used for support. This parasol may be made in almost any style, fabric or color you choose. Convo me for a custom order. This handmade Victorian style parasol is made in your choice of white, black or ivory lace. It is embellished at the hem and tip with a lace ruffle. It has hand painted turned wood rib tips and ferrule tip. This is the 24" diameter when open. It is finished with a tassel and parasol charm. The advantage of the longer length offers the elegant style of the walking parasol as well as providing added height to accommodate the large hats of the era. This is a MADE TO ORDER item. I am usually two to four weeks out on shipping orders. If you have a rush order, contact me and I will tell you whether I will be able to meet your deadline. I do offer International shipping. This parasol frame is very sturdy as it has a metal shaft. Many parasols offered are made on inexpensive wood shafts that are easily broken and have an unreliable opening mechanism. This metal handle also locks both open and closed for easy use and carrying. Keep in mind that this is a parasol and not a rain umbrella. It may be used as a sunshade and to add a lovely accent to your ensemble, but don't get it wet. If it gets wet it will probably be damaged, and I cannot attest to the colorfastness of any of the products used in its creation. This parasol will be a stunning accessory for a Victorian, Civil War, Old West or Southern Belle costume or beautiful as part of your wedding attire. If you are a parasol collector, this will be a lovely addition to your collection.
