An iconic name in high-end craftsmanship, Le Parapluie de Cherbourg expands its collection with a brand-new creation: the Ombrelle . Dedicated to sunny days and the French art of living, this exceptional piece combines sun protection and refinement, making it a new summer essential. Designed in the same spirit as the brand's iconic models, the ombrelle embodies the tradition, excellence, and expertise that Le Parapluie de Cherbourg has championed for over 30 years.
Far from being a mere decorative accessory, the ombrelle designed by Le Parapluie de Cherbourg is a truly protective object, both elegant and technically advanced. Its 100% polyester fabric boasts a UV protection rating of 50 , offering reliable protection against the sun's rays. It thus meets a growing demand: the desire to combine aesthetics and functionality, using materials chosen for their performance and durability.
With a diameter of 100 cm and a height of 91 cm, this ombrelle offers generous coverage without adding bulk. Its manageable weight (between 510 and 525 grams) allows for smooth use and comfortable carrying, even at outdoor events, ceremonies, or long summer walks.
Its opening and closing system is entirely manual, respecting the precise and measured gesture that characterizes haute couture. The result is a noble object, whose discreet mechanism allows the finesse of the form and the quality of the material to take center stage.
Like all the brand's models, this ombrelle is handcrafted in our workshops in the heart of Cherbourg. It benefits from the expertise of our artisans, trained in the demanding techniques of fine craftsmanship. The assembly of each piece, from the wooden shaft to the handle, from the canopy to the finishing ring, is carried out with respect for the brand's traditions and commitments.
The frame combines a beechwood pole – prized for its stability, elegance, and natural beauty – with lightweight yet robust carbon steel ribs. This combination of wood and metal ensures theombrelle is highly durable without sacrificing the lightness required for summer use.
The handle, meanwhile, is straight, made of Jura hornbeam, a dense and elegant French wood that offers an excellent grip. Every detail counts: the handle's finish, the fabric's texture, the perfectly balanced weight. The hardware is equally impressive, with a stamped ring and 18-karat gold trim, a nod to the understated prestige that Le Parapluie de Cherbourgembodies.
Because aombrelle is also a style accessory, Le Parapluie de Cherbourg has created a palette of refined colors, inspired by nature, the seasons, and emotions. Nine shades make up the first collection:
Each shade allows you to match theombrelle to an outfit, a season, or an atmosphere. It thus becomes a true fashion accessory, capable of accentuating a silhouette or setting the tone for an event. Whether for a wedding, a garden party, or a seaside getaway, it blends seamlessly into any summer setting.
Since its inception, Le Parapluie de Cherbourg has designed pieces built to last, at the crossroads of elegance and technical expertise. The ombrelle naturally follows in this tradition. It is not a derivative of the umbrella, but a product in its own right, designed to meet the needs and requirements of the company's customers.
By opting for French raw materials, prioritizing local and artisanal manufacturing, and incorporating exquisite finishes, the company continues to champion the values of fine craftsmanship, authenticity, and the passing down of traditions. Theombrelle embodies this vision: that of a useful and beautiful accessory, timeless and enduring.
With this launch, Le Parapluie de Cherbourg revives an elegant, almost forgotten tradition: theombrelle as an object of distinction. It evokes the elegant women of the seaside, the refined silhouettes under the sun in a garden, and that subtle grace that only a well-designed piece can offer.
The new ombrelle is available to order on the official website of Le Parapluie de Cherbourg. Each piece is handcrafted and carefully delivered in a custom-made box. Gift wrapping is also available, making it ideal for ombrelle , birthdays, or summer celebrations.
Like all the brand's models, theombrelle comes with a two-year guarantee, a testament to the company's ongoing commitment to quality and service. At the crossroads of textile innovation, respect for tradition, and French elegance, this new product embodies the spirit of the house: exceptional craftsmanship dedicated to beautiful objects.
With this ombrelle , Le Parapluie de Cherbourg makes a striking entry into the world of sun accessories. Designed to last, crafted to charm, and made with the same exacting standards as the brand's iconic umbrellas, it stands out as a seasonal item, but not a fleeting one. True to the brand's spirit, it blends expertise, exacting standards, and a touch of poetry.
As summer approaches, it's time to rediscover the pleasure of protecting yourself from the sun in style. And what could be more elegant than a handcrafted ombrelle , born in a French workshop, and designed to enhance every moment?
