Traditional


At first the smell of varnish can overwhelm the nose yet this is what delights many Chinese cos' this signals the newness of the umbrella and extra care are given till it gets real old. Well, human nature is to do this. Yet for me, somehow very opening and closing is handled with care, cos' I treasure them I guess and it is possible for just 3 months-- its life span.

Paper


This cocktail decorative umbrellas are a real joy to the drinks and concoction it umbrellas. The typical feel is valuable to my eyes and every sip of the drink brings a smile to my face cos' the umbrella gives a fun experience to it and I love to poke the cherry with its handle and pineapple slice on my favourite tropical concoction: the pineapple zing.

Japanese


Holding the umbrella while walking in opera performance is the Japanese dance and with it gives so much grace and femininity to the whole movement; a poetic description of a floating cloud I suppose when one holds it and it seems so light that I start to imagine I am in what would probably be heaven on earth. Noi is certainly a play that utilizes the umbrella to the full I always feel.

Hat Um


Who is the genius that thought of this invention deserves the cool shade his invention brings, and thanks to him I benefit too. No worries about sure hands or not having enough hands to carry the groceries since they follow you where you go. Still big minds render them helpless, well as if the normal umbrella does help anyhow. Hats off to you smart inventor.

For Winter


Should we only rely on caps, I think many would have perish from the harsh winter. Any sheild is good and the umbrella just do great in anything from the cold wind and landing icy snow that could freeze the cap if left long enough or when it flies away, goodness has it that the umbrella comes to the rescue again since it can protect us against all these elements every winter.

Um Tree


Ever know that that's such a creation call the umbrella tree? Yes it is not just the model or man's crazy invention. Cos' of its shape, it is named as such , of course its portability is not there, but maybe it is the shape that inspires the one to name it after the umbrella. Other than that, the umbrella tree has its own flavorable poise to enjoy.

Ice-Cream


Gratitude and ease of mind comes to me whenever on a sunny day, I see the big umbrella of the ice cream man shading him from the scourging sun rays. And it gladdens me to see his smile glow under the shade and the logo Wall's with the red and yellow umbrella protecting the ice cream he sells. I will then share some time under the shade smelling the ice cream biscuits in that area as a break.
