Elite umbrellas

An umbrella is a common accessory for protection from rain, which is in every home and not in one copy. It would seem, what can he surprise? Interesting design, size, unusual print, construction. And also at a price! A conventional mechanical or automatic model can be bought within 1-2 thousand rubles. But there is also a special category - elite umbrellas, the cost of which exceeds this price by tens, or even hundreds of times.

What makes up the price of this or that thing? From the cost of materials, accessories, jewelry, complexity and originality of design, brand and many other components.

Expensive umbrellas are a separate category of accessories, for the manufacture of which designers and manufacturers use the most expensive and unusual materials. Hence the high price tag. For example, the cost of a Swarovski crystal-embellished umbrella from the Pasotti brand is approximately $ 360. And the Hotel Il Marchesato model, made of natural silk and decorated with rhinestones - about $ 400.

Umbrellas of the elite or luxury category are made of natural expensive materials, including precious woods, silk, precious stones and even tortoiseshell. Such models are rather a real museum rarity than an everyday accessory.

Elite models differ from the usual ones in several required parameters:

1. The structure is made of wood or metal, but not plastic.
2. A durable, beautiful, expensive fabric is used as a material for covering the dome.
3. The accessory is made by hand.
4. Rhinestones, crystals, precious stones, genuine leather and other expensive materials are used as decoration.
5. Original design. Even if the model is made in a classic style, each manufacturer adds some flavor to their model.

Expensive umbrellas can be both for women and for men.If we talk about the model range, then most often you can find elite accessories made in the form of a cane. Such models look very elegant, noble and expensive. Especially if the handle is made in an unusual shape and beautifully decorated. Most often, natural wood of apple, cherry, bamboo, walnut and other species is used for the manufacture of pens.

The ideal choice for modern, self-confident men. The Italian brand focuses on sophisticated, stylish design and flawless form. The material for the dome is polyester or satin. The dome is most often made quite voluminous; for the manufacture of the frame, aluminum alloys or fiberglass are used.

Women's umbrellas are one of the main directions of this brand. To create its products, the company uses only the highest quality materials (wood, silk), accessories and decorative ornaments. As a result, the models of this brand are used with pleasure not only by women of fashion all over the world, but also by representatives of the royal family, aristocracy and the highest political circles of Great Britain.

One of the most democratic brands producing luxury accessories. The company uses steel and fiberglass to create its models, so the frame of the umbrellas is very durable, it does not break or bend from gusts of wind. The special Teflon coating prevents rain drops from getting on your clothes. Bright, original prints make each umbrella unique in its own way.

Manufacturers of luxury models pay great attention not only to the materials used and design. An expensive umbrella must be of very high quality. That is why the design features of umbrellas are constantly being improved.

For example, a cane. The good thing about this model is that there are no elements in its design, such as knees, which tend to loosen over time. In addition, the spokes of the model do not have articulations, so the dome will always be perfectly tight and correct. These umbrellas are highly durable and durable. There are simply no details that fail with frequent opening and closing of umbrellas.

Among the shortcomings, it can only be noted that such an umbrella cannot be compactly rolled up and hidden in a purse. But this drawback is rather arbitrary. An elegant, stylish cane will be a great addition to the image of a respectable man or an elegant lady even in sunny weather.

In addition, sometimes the umbrella domes are abundantly decorated with rhinestones, crystals and stones, which will not allow the model to fold compactly. This decor is most often used on walking sticks.

The handle is one of the most beloved decorative elements by designers. Metal decorations, knobs, stones act as decor, and the handle itself can have an intricate, original shape.

An expensive umbrella requires especially careful and careful maintenance. Otherwise, it may soon lose its functionality, visual appeal and fail.

1. One of the main requirements: you cannot dry the opened umbrella in the immediate vicinity of the heating devices. It can deform. It is best to open the umbrella and leave it hanging loosely on a hook or doorknob.
2. Dust or any dirt can be easily washed off the umbrella yourself. This will require a special cleaning agent for delicate fabrics and water.

• Luxury umbrellas are things that are purchased for more than one season. Therefore, it is best to give preference to classic design models. Classics will never go out of style, they are always relevant.

• If the task is to acquire the most durable umbrella possible, then it is best to opt for walking sticks. It will last much longer than its automatic counterpart.
• It is worth paying attention to the number and quality of the spokes: there must be at least 8 of them to properly support the dome.It is good if steel or fiberglass is used as the material for their manufacture. They are stronger and more durable than aluminum and plastic.
• When purchasing a branded model, you need to pay attention to the brand and the country of origin. Italy, Great Britain and other European countries are famous for their excellent collections of extra-class umbrellas for every taste.
