Traditional Balinese outdoor umbrellas
In Bali, an umbrella is known as “tedung” which means “to guard” and they are used to decorate temples, and guard them from evil spirits. Traditional Balinese outdoor umbrellas are made in pure shades of white or yellow, to symbolize purity and peace, as well as dedication to the gods. They include bells, tassels and fringes for extra effect.
The traditional style of Balinese outdoor umbrellas are created entirely by hand and can take up to ten days to make. The Balinese people use these in their private temple compounds as well as the community temples. These umbrellas are changed regularly in order to maintain the bright colors.
In more recent times, these umbrellas are not just restricted to temple surroundings, and are often found in hotel and villa lobbies and gardens. These stylish umbrellas make a wonderful addition to any outdoor or indoor space. By using these decorative objects, you bring the color and harmony of Bali to your home.
Modern Balinese outdoor umbrellas
Traditional Balinese umbrellas are beautiful decorations and serve an ornamental purpose, rather than a practical one. However, there are also many umbrellas being made to be used in conjunction with outdoor furniture, to protect you from the weather.
Modern style Balinese outdoor umbrellas are available in various sizes and colors, that either stand alone or can be inserted in to your patio table. These are designed with wide canopies in order to offer maximum protection from the sun’s rays.
This style of outdoor umbrella is both attractive and functional. They can be placed between two sun loungers by the pool for a great shady relaxation area, or by your outdoor dining set to allow you and your family to enjoy your meals under the sun.
