A classic parasol that I have been using for years is the 'Classic' from 'Weishäupl'. The Bavarian label has been manufacturing garden furniture from honest materials in its family-run factory in Stephanskirchen, Upper Bavaria, for over 50 years, and Vitra, the design authority, knows all too well that.
That's why the two labels have teamed up and the result is the 'classic' in the most beautiful colors. Reminds me of ice cream and my first vacations in Italy.
Made entirely of hardwood and surface impregnated, the parasol classic radiates quite a bit of warmth. The covering is water-repellent and equipped against rot, so it easily withstands short downpours in the summer. The umbrella defies nasty gusts of wind thanks to the clever air hood.
Now all you have to do is tell me how you would like your personal parasol to look. And then here with the golden summer days!
