Description This parasol was made in Japan. It is light tan in color. There is embroidered flowers on the parasol in the same color. The handle is wooden with about 5 or 6 inches of floral carving at the lower end. It does have a metal piece that opens up the parasol. The material is pleated towards the top of the parasol, with the wooden tip protruding approximately 3 inches from the top. it's tipped with a metal cap with two lines encircling the lower part. It looks like it has a broken snap, that's supposed to hold it closed. some of the material towards the points is a little damaged, possibly from water or rot. The wooden handle unscrews and has a collapsable joint.
