Chinoiserie Umbrellas


I am crazy about these umbrellas for the beach or patio to add Chinoiserie flair to your outdoor summer living. This wonderful Pagoda Umbrella above is from Pier One Imports. It is $169.99 and very chic! The umbrella below is the Venezia from Z Gallerie and on sale for $148.99. I love the black and white stripes and tassels. The last umbrella is the Soho Square at Z Gallerie on sale for $185.99. Don't you like the Greek key design and tassels? It is also available in orange design. Let's bring Chinoiserie outdoors-check out these posts of mine for more ideas on Chinoiserie outdoors: the garden stool, the entrance, the shed, the door, and alfresco dining.

  1. Gorgeous picks - the second one is my favorite for certain! I can already see lovely summer settings in my mind ...one with orange details, one with magenta and orange, the possibilities are endless~

  2. Love the pagoda - and I am thinking how easy it would be to add tassels like on num 2 for a chinoiserie makeover!

  4. SF-Wonderful idea. You could buy coordinating tassels anywhere and add them to the corners.

  13. The pagoda umbrella is interesting but it wouldn't go with all decor. The black and white umbrellas are perfect, simple and classic! I love them! Looks like they are almost out too! Have to grab them before they are gone.
