Like and save for later

Paper Japanese umbrellas, antique or vintage over 50 yrs old. Stored carefully in a climate controlled environment. Does have some holes but can be delicately opened as shown in the pictures. Metal tops as shown with one having a hanging ring. Please note condition as part of this description. Made in Japan. Bamboo. They are lovely and the tears are not that noticeable in my opinion. This is for the true vintage collector. Comes from a smoke free and pet free home. Approximately 28” open diameter x 23” long.

thevarwin @alldayshopper This listing is for 2 umbrellas. When opened I measured 28” across and they are approximately 23” from handle end to top

thevarwin @alldayshopper Unfortunately, due to the delicate nature, there may be other slight holes in them. They are very old. If you need more info, let me know. I don’t want to sell items to people and be disappointed. Due to the vintage nature, they have value but are delicate.

thevarwin If you’re interested in all three, this listing and the other umbrella listing, please bundle.

jsmith4590 After living in Japan as an exchange student for over a year, I absolutely fell in love with the Japanese and geisha cultures. Because of this, I do my best to collect authentic Japanese art and artifacts to admire and display all throughout my home. These two exquisite pieces you have for sale are marvelous and I would love, let alone be honored, to add to my exquisite collection from both here and Japan. Please let me know your thoughts on these l mquisite

jsmith4590 First, I would like to thank you for accepting my offer for your amazing umbrellas. I am very excited to own them!

jsmith4590 However, with all good things, something must always go wrong, In this case, I am having trouble with my credit union and them repeatedly freezing my accounts. Therefore, if it is all right with you, I would like to place a hold on these fabulous umbrellas until I get my banking issue straightened out. Afterwards, I will then pay you in full and as soon as I pay you in full then you can mail them to me. Does that sound reasonable and fair to you?

thevarwin @jsmith4590 sure

thevarwin I just tried to put them “not for sale” but I have to wait a few hours because Poshmark makes me wait until all the offers I sent out are no longer in place. That should be a few hours, unless someone buys them, but I don’t thinks so because they would have been boughten earlier and not waited until last minute. I’ll put them on hold asap

thevarwin @jsmith4590 Poshmark has allowed me to place a hold on these as I have accepted your offer. When the offer expires, then I can put these “not for sale” until things are straightened out. So now, no one else can buy these. And later, after your offer expires, I will hold these for you. Thanks

thevarwin Please let me know when you are able to purchase these. I don’t check my email often and the Posh messages sometimes get lost in the multitude of messages. So please let me know an approximate time that you think you’ll be ready.

voyeurvintage Howdy! I was wondering if both parasols still open and close without issue? I’d be purchasing to actually use if they will hold up to use. Thanks so much!

thevarwin @voyeurvintage The paper is rather delicate due to their age. They are not for hard use, more for decor. They do open and close ok however. But I’d your looking for sturdy, the. Buy new.
