The Umbrella of Cherbourg x Tournaire Paris
Le Parapluie de Cherbourg and the Tournaire jewelry house present two umbrellas: Alchimie and Engrenages, resulting from their collaboration.
Their love for French know-how led Charles Yvon and Mathieu Tournaire, the two creators, to collaborate to create these exceptional umbrellas, combining the heritage of each of the Houses.
The handle of the bronze art umbrellas is made in the Maison Tournaire workshop in Montbrison. The umbrella canvas and mechanism are later added in Cherbourg at the Umbrella Factory.

Exceptional umbrella
The Alchemy Umbrella and the Gear Umbrella: An Art of Resistance
The Alchimie Umbrella takes up the shapes of the iconic Alchimie collection from Maison Tournaire: the square, the triangle and the circle, representing the past, the present and the future, symbols of the journey of life and the evolution of Man.
The Gear Umbrella features a multitude of gears, universal symbols of transmission and movement. For Mathieu Tournaire, these cogs represent both the passing of time and the different members of a family: each represents a member, and the more cogs there are together, the more the forces multiply. Regardless of the size of the gear, each one is essential to the proper functioning of the whole.
On these two models, a Maison Tournaire x Le Parapluie de Cherbourg sticker is also engraved under the handle.
A luxury umbrella for men: Elegance and functionality
From this iconic collaboration between the Manufacture des Parapluies de Cherbourg and the jewelry house Tournaire Paris was born the Alchimie et Engrenages umbrella collection. It is above all the love of these two companies for French craftsmanship that pushed them towards a collaboration to create chic umbrellas for men, essential luxury accessories.
The Tournaire Paris umbrella is designed to withstand strong winds of up to 155 km/h. The Alchimie et Engrenages umbrella also features a galvanized steel shaft and fiber ribs that give it strength and durability. In its design, the umbrella from the Alchimie et Engrenages collection embodies the perfect blend of art and practicality. It features an automatic opening and a manual closing system, allowing for effortless opening and closing.
To ensure years of service, the Tournaire umbrella is made from premium materials, including durable taffeta fabric. Its hand-patinated yellow bronze handle with a polished finish gives this luxury men's umbrella its status as an objet d'art. Choose between the Alchimie handle and the Engrenages handle to personalize it to your liking.
Its ideal dimensions, with a height of 88.5 cm and a diameter of 100 cm, also make this umbrella an ideal accessory. It can be easily carried for a business meeting or an evening out. This exceptional umbrella evokes the elegance and craftsmanship of jewelry. Between sophisticated aesthetics and weather resistance, this is a unique luxury umbrella for men that you will not be able to do without.
