Japanese Maigasa Umbrella w/Fabric Case

Whether paired with a beautiful kimono or in the hands of an elegant Geisha, Japanese traditional umbrellas (wagasa) are a popular fashion accessory as well as an eye-catching home decor piece. Maigasa, in particular, are used for performance by dancers.
This vintage Japanese umbrella is covered in a sheer blue fabric with matching blue paper at the edge. The headpiece at the very top is a lacquered black cap. The outer ribs are painted with black lacquer to match. The inner frame is made of bamboo painted dark blue with multi-colored strings to tie it all together. The handle is made of a combination of wood, resin plastic, and metal painted black with a metal stopper pin and a bamboo coil handle. This item is unique in that it has a shorter overall width and longer handle than most. It also screws apart at the middle of the handle for easy storage. It comes with a yellow fabric case.
