    Description

    This is so cool!  I've never seen one of these before and my research didn't turn up any other ones.
    The parasol is 25 1/2 inches long when fully extended.  The parasol silk is doubled and has some tears from age as shown.  Diameter of the silk part is 16 1/2 inches, so it's definitely a "parasolette" as described on the box.  The hinge joint that allows the parasol to fold has a crack as shown.  It doesn't interfere with use, though.
    The box is great to have with this.  The original tissue paper is still in the box!  The box has wear as shown.
    Shipping will be .  Thanks for looking at my auction!
