How It's Made - Umbrellas

1. Inspiration & Design

Each umbrella begins as a concept — a balance of style, strength, and sophistication. Our designers seek inspiration in architecture, classic tailoring, and vintage silhouettes to create pieces that are functional yet refined. Every month, new models are born — exclusive and never repeated.

2. Selecting the Materials

We choose only the highest-grade fabrics — tightly woven water-resistant polyester or traditional cotton blends with exceptional texture and sheen. For the frames, we use durable steel, flexible fiberglass, or solid wood, ensuring strength without compromising elegance.

3. Crafting the Canopy

The fabric is cut by hand, panel by panel, and carefully stitched into a perfectly balanced canopy. The process requires millimeter-level accuracy to ensure smooth tension, graceful opening, and long-lasting shape — even in wind and rain.

4. Building the Handle & Shaft

We turn and polish wooden shafts and handles from ash, maple, or chestnut — chosen for strength and natural beauty. Handles may be carved, bent by steam, or left in classic straight form. Some feature silver collars or brass rings — subtle touches that elevate the entire piece.

5. Final Touch

Each umbrella is manually opened, tested for balance and resistance, and inspected by hand. Only then is it carefully wrapped, ready to accompany its future owner. No mass production, no shortcuts — just true craftsmanship.
