Wonderful! This large umbrella has a bold black & tan print of fighting cocks and dragons, with a border of Chinese lanterns. It's likely 1920s/30s/40s but difficult to precisely date. The interior mechanism is an intricate engineering of pink thread and bamboo. Functions beautifully. Measurements 40.5 Inches Diameter of Span, 27 Inches Total Length Tip to Handle Label None, expertly artisan made Materials Tan shellacked rice paper, black screen print, natural bamboo Condition Detail Very fine, the shellacked paper has occasional brown specks from the shellac itself; beautiful burnishing to the wood and metal; nothing noticeable Wear Recommendation Wearable
