Asian Home Rainproof Handmade Chinese Oiled Paper Umbrella Parasol 33 Plum Blossom

I bought this as sun protection and carried it on the hottest afternoon of the summer at a crowded event. Imagine my surprise when I noticed vendors selling the very same parasol for three times the price. At the end of the afternoon we ran into an unexpected thunderstorm so my parasol got wet. It dried beautifully and Ill be able to use it again. Delighted with this purchase.

Pros: It is pretty, is sturdy, and is suitable for a short walk in a sunny day. Cons: the chemical smell is so strong that I had a headache all afternoon. I used it ONCE and had to leave it open to see if the smell goes away (I highly doubt it). Unfortunately the makers spread some kind of chemical all over it. And is impossible to ignore it. Also the handle is painted or covered with a protective coat, Im assuming, that is kind of sticky. It might be good for a decoration, outside, far, far, VERY far away from peoples noses.

Very nice. I loved it.

Stunning umbrella! Made of good quality. Yes it’s smells horrible and will stink up your house. I sprayed mine with Lysol and smell quickly went away. Also, you could always leave it outside to air out. The smell does go away.

Great quality

Beautiful umbrella, but horrible toxic smell. I ended up with a terrible headache just minutes after opening and had to take it outside. Maybe some sunshine and fresh air will help. Hopefully.

This product is so beautiful. I enjoyed using it as a prop for my photo shoot. Will be good for the sun as well

I use it when I take kids out for fire drills

The paper is too delicate. It tore as soon as I opened it. The design and size were perfect.

I used this for a photoshoot but I also used it when it rains & it works!
