About the Item

This handcrafted traditional Japanese umbrella, made of bamboo and washi paper, carries the quiet beauty of age and imperfection. Its weathered texture and graceful form bring a sense of authenticity and poetic calm to any space. Once used in ceremonial or theatrical contexts, it now stands as a unique sculptural element — perfect as a wall-mounted piece, suspended installation, or floor-standing accent. A refined addition to interiors seeking depth, storytelling, and timeless character.
