Care & Maintenance

Your Parasol needs to be treated carefully, after all they come from a beautiful tropical climate and will find some of our weather conditions very inhospitable.
.
We advise you to bring them in and if possible try not to leave them out in the rain. Especially high winds can be damaging to them. Should they inadvertently get caught in a shower be careful to dry them completely before putting them away. They can be treated with fabric protector such as Scotchguard to further protect them.  
.
In nature being handcrafted no two Parasols are the same and also have an authentic finish to them, they are not machine made and have their own individual character.
.
We have added a simple system so that they can be stored in two pieces and recommend when they are put up that the security peg is in place for stability. When you first receive your Parasol they can be rather reluctant to show themselves off, therefore if you open the Parasol before you place it into the pole by pushing the top down into the ground (put something on the ground to protect the carved top) this is a lot easier, keep pushing until the hole appears, pop the peg in, turn it back the correct way up, pop the pole in, stand back and admire!
