ummmmbreeelllaaaa time!
 
So my mother and I were going through storage the other day and way in the back we found a realllly old Japanese umbrella...She got it like 20 years ago when she was in Japan and it's got a few holes in it from sitting in the hot storage box and collecting dust

It's got some painting of a guy in a kimono with an odd haircut and words all over it. it looks like it's made out of silkscreen and bamboo....Or maybe it's ricepaper? I can't really tell the difference in the two but it's kinda a dry warn light brown texture. Almost like antique paper..if that makes sense. Maybe that's normal and it's just meant to look really old.

Anyone know what this style is called and if it's actually used as an umbrella? or is it purely decoration..

Because i'm gonna repair it and use it cause it looks fckin pro XD

O.o I'll take a pic of it and see if I can get one of you to translate it

That's a parasol.

And if you guys want to have a shit-for-giggles conversation, then do it on PMs. There are so many ME ME ME threads right now it is just pathetic.

0.0 I just figured asking about the 'parasol" I found was appropriate for the art section of the forum ><.

As it does have art on it and i was curious about it since it IS a part of japanese culture. 0.0?

By the looks of it, I'd say it's not meant to be a rain shelter -.-

Good luck figuring out what use you can make out of it.
