LOVE this umbrella. So pretty and timeless. My neighbor saw it and immediately said “how cool and retro!”, which through me for a loop. However after showing me an umbrella of hers from the 70’s I finally understood why all the comments on here make mention of “retro”!

I’ve had this out in the sun for a week straight, no immediate fading issues with full sun all day! The fringe is VERY pretty, and the navy is a little deeper than average, but still went well with my Sol72 patio furniture in navy.

Even if this fades, as some have mentioned, I Would but again because I love it! Size is also just right. Also, the pole is brownish in color, for anyone who may not notice - this was the only ‘downside’ as we do not have any metal on our porch ‘brown’ but was still ok.
