What is an Umbrella?

An Umbrella, also interchangeably known as a Parasol is a foldable, canopy like structure which is supported by ribs that are mounted on a wooden, metal, or a plastic pole. Its basic purpose is to protect a person against rain or sunlight. Traditionally speaking, the term “Umbrella” was used when protecting oneself from rain, while the term “Parasol’ was used when protecting oneself from sunlight, these terms have become interchangeable over the years with the change in the design and use of an umbrella.

An Umbrellas is primarily a hand-held portable device which is sized for personal use. Hand-held umbrellas feature a type of handle which can be made from wood, a plastic cylinder, or a bent "crook" handle (resembling to the handle of a cane).

Umbrella: History

We have normalised the modern-day Umbrella and view it as a staple rainy day carry on, which is in fact a far cry from its stately origins. In ancient times, Umbrellas were considered to be a symbol of wealth, royalty and power and its possession was quite limited. We associate the Umbrellas with the monsoon weather, but it was originally designed to provide protection from the sun. It has evolved over the years when it comes to its purpose, style, and material used, although the signature canopy shaped structure has generally remained the same.

You can see references to the usage of umbrellas in art and literature across the globe, dating as early as the 4th century B.C. From the use of palm leaves and feathers to build a version of the umbrella to leather umbrellas and to them being a fashion statement tool. Umbrellas re-emerged as a common accessory not just for wealthy, but the general population somewhere in the 1700s.

Umbrellas now are a common accessory, a necessity carry-on for every household. There are various versions of the traditional umbrella that are available in the market. From large or small personal use umbrellas, rainy or summer use umbrellas, daily use, or designer umbrellas to a wide range of beach or patio table umbrellas, other than their basic structure, the fabric, design and purpose, everything has evolved.
