Collection: Traditional Japanese Umbrellas

Japanese umbrellas are among the most recognizable symbols of Japanese culture. Our collection brings together traditional wagasa-style parasols made of paper and bamboo, silk umbrellas and modern sun umbrellas, ideal for sun protection, home decor, dance, weddings and photo shoots.

Traditional paper and bamboo parasols

The wagasa is the classic Japanese umbrella, with a bamboo frame and a paper canopy decorated with cherry blossoms, landscapes and other Japanese motifs. Our paper and bamboo parasols are designed for sun and decoration: they are not waterproof and should not be used in the rain.

Silk umbrellas

Silk umbrellas with wood and bamboo handles are light and elegant, perfect as decoration for your home, a restaurant or an event, and as a prop for traditional dance and cosplay.

Sun umbrellas

For everyday use, some models are made with waterproof fabric and metal frames. Check the materials and features on each product page to choose the right umbrella for your needs.

How to decorate with a Japanese umbrella

Open a large parasol on a wall or ceiling, place it in a corner as a statement piece, or use it to decorate a Japanese-themed party. Pair it with Japanese lanterns or a kimono for a complete look.
