Palma Umbrella with Frame

A red dot award-winning piece, the Palma Umbrella with Frame from Royal Botania provides us with plenty of shade like its namesake with an elegant and innovative design. Inspired by a time sheltering under a palm tree, creator Kris Van Puyvelde brings a comfort and craftsmanship-first mindset to this piece. It sets itself apart with a sculptural framework that's free from struts. The powder-coated aluminum structure lets the piece achieve nature-inspired curves while maintaining outdoor durability. Contrasting against traditional umbrellas, this piece opens and closes on its own by simply tugging one of the arms. In motion, the piece is smooth and elegant.
