Keep it long, treasure it long.

A truly realistic dog expression

A British folding umbrella with a dog's face as the handle. The beauty of these handmade umbrellas comes from the history of umbrellas, which were treasured as a hobby of British gentlemen and were even carried around on sunny days.

Drawing on the history of umbrellas

In Britain, where FOX UMBRELLAS was born, umbrellas were a symbol of wealth. It is said that aristocrats always carried folded umbrellas to show that they had the financial means to hire servants and were comfortable with their hands full. For this reason, it was important how thin and beautifully the umbrella was rolled up, how intricately it was decorated, and how expensive materials were used, and many people had them custom-made like suits. Even today, antique umbrellas from that era are the object of admiration for enthusiasts.

The Setter Handle Folding Umbrella is a folding umbrella with a dog decoration on the handle, reminiscent of the umbrellas of that era. When you hold it, you can feel the coolness and the heavy, luxurious texture, and your heart will dance every time you pick it up, even if it's raining outside.

The dog with a cute expression, which is hard to find even if you try, is hand painted, meaning it has been hand painted by a craftsman. It is highly valuable just as a one-of-a-kind item, but for people who have pets or love animals, this folding umbrella is irresistibly cute.

Unusually for a folding umbrella, the ribs are longer than those of a normal folding umbrella, and with eight ribs and a large surface area of ​​fabric, the size makes it feel like a long umbrella. It can be stored in a large bag, but it is also stylish to hold it in your hand like a bag.

An umbrella brand used by the British Royal Family

FOX UMBRELLAS was founded in England in 1868. Since its founding, the brand has focused on quality and craftsmanship, and has continued to make simple and beautiful umbrellas. It is a trusted umbrella brand used by the British Royal Family.

The word "umbrella" comes from the Latin word umbra (shadow), and originally meant a parasol.
Its history is long, and it was a symbolic item of wealth in Egypt around 1000 BC. The first person to invent the rain umbrella was Jonas Hanway, a British philosopher and traveler.
In the mid-1700s, he soaked an umbrella in oil and walked around London using it as rain gear. He was treated as a weirdo by the public, and it never caught on in general use at the time.

In 1947, FOX UMBRELLAS, which manufactured small parachutes, developed the world's first synthetic fiber umbrella using leftover nylon from parachutes. The U-shaped steel frame invented by FOX UMBRELLAS is a framework structure that has become the global standard. The balance of the curved surface is calculated to gently receive rain that hits it and guide the water droplets out of the umbrella. FOX UMBRELLAS, which makes highly durable umbrellas, is a brand that remains today as the original umbrella.

In addition, the annual production volume is only about 15,000 umbrellas, and all processes, such as cutting the fabric with a wooden mold, sewing with a sewing machine, assembling the metal frame, and processing the handles from various natural materials, are done by hand by skilled craftsmen at the company's own factory on the outskirts of London.
