This elegant hanging parasol is perfect to create some shade and protect you from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Made of UV protective and anti-fade polyester, the parasol cover provides you with optimum protection against the sun and is easy to clean. It features a sturdy cross base to add stability. The exclusive design of this parasol allows you to tilt the parasol to block the sun as it heads down towards the horizon. The strong metal pole, along with the 6 durable ribs, makes the parasol very stable and durable. This garden umbrella can be easily opened and closed thanks to the crank mechanism. Please note – We recommend treating the umbrella fabric with a waterproofing spray if it is subjected to heavy rainfall.
