History of the Shepherd's Umbrella
Traditionally rustic, the shepherd's umbrella is no less urban. The true blue shepherd is a handcrafted product (more than 4 hours are needed to make this model) in France. Guarantee of an authentic product made in France; of great quality.
In the past, the canvas of the umbrellas was made of heavy cotton and had to pass once or twice under the rain to become completely waterproof. Only then was the umbrella ready to face the changing weather of the Pyrenees combining rain, sun, wind, thunder...
This umbrella comes from the Pyrenees and is impregnated with the history of our shepherds. The shepherd's umbrella was born in the Pyrenees in the 17th century.
Indeed, at that time, it was used by many shepherds. Its quality of manufacture as well as the materials used allowed the shepherds to use it all their life to protect themselves not only from the rain but also from the sun. This umbrella has through the manufacture and materials used has not changed for several centuries. This tradition is therefore perpetuated in the pure tradition of French craftsmanship. In addition, its large size compared to the classic umbrella, will allow you to stay sheltered with family or friends easily.
