Balinese Turquoise Cotton Garden Parasol Umbrella 1.5m

A handmade Balinese patio parasol in turquoise, crafted from turquoise cotton on a Dorran wood pole with an aluminium core. At 1.5 metres across, it suits smaller patios, balconies, and intimate garden corners — or works as a decorative accent alongside larger shade structures. Made in Indonesia by artisans who apply traditional techniques including hand-loomed cotton weaving, tassels, and decorative motifs.

What This Parasol Brings

• A decorative parasol that works as both shade and a visual centrepiece for outdoor spaces — the Balinese detailing sets it apart from standard garden umbrellas.
• Features hand-loomed cotton weave at the centre of the canopy, metallic motifs, tassels, and brass pendant details — elements drawn from Balinese temple architecture and textile traditions.
• The Dorran wood pole is reinforced with an aluminium core for structural strength while maintaining a natural, warm appearance.
• The turquoise tone pairs well with natural furniture, rattan, wicker, and wooden outdoor settings.

Canvas, Dorran Wood, Aluminium

The canopy is made from turquoise cotton. The pole is Dorran wood — a tropical hardwood — with an aluminium core for added rigidity. Decorative elements include cotton tassels, woven centre panels, and golden ornamental details. Handmade in Indonesia.

Setup and Care

The parasol requires a compatible base or stand (not included) to hold the pole upright. Alternatively, it can be used decoratively leaning against a wall or structure. Bring indoors or under cover during heavy rain or strong wind — as a decorative parasol, it is not engineered for extreme weather. Store dry. Spot-clean fabric with a damp cloth as needed.

Balinese Parasols in Context

Decorative parasols are a traditional element of Balinese temple and ceremonial architecture. They appear in processions, at temple entrances, and during religious festivals. The craft of making these parasols — with their layered fabrics, tassels, and gilded details — is part of Bali's broader tradition of ceremonial art. Contemporary Balinese parasols adapt these techniques for home and garden use.

Common Questions

Is this parasol waterproof?
It is a decorative parasol, not a rain umbrella. It provides sun shade and light weather protection, but should be stored under cover during heavy rain.

What base or stand does this parasol need?
A standard parasol base with a compatible pole diameter opening. Check the pole diameter against your base before purchasing.

Can I leave this parasol outside permanently?
For the longest life, bring it in or fold it down when not in use, especially during rain or strong winds. The natural materials will weather faster with prolonged outdoor exposure.
