The handle, axis and arms are made of bamboo and the surface is made of pure cotton cloth. The cloth is prepared with outside layer glue of pine oil, wax, diesel oil and other traditional glue coatings. So it is waterproof and strong.

Raw Materials

We use only "Tharaku" Bamboo. The raw material bamboos have to be prepared by sinking in mud for one year before the starting of production procedures. This is the traditional method for the umbrella to be reliable for long time use.

For handling and assorting the branches, we use multi-coloured cotton wool by threading in design patterns.
