A Large Umbrella In Beautiful Hues
Because of our iconic dual cantilever pole design, every one of our large umbrellas add an architectural design element to your home. Due to the complex way our umbrellas move, our designers had to make sure the paint “follows the sun light” to highlight the profile of the umbrella visually when light hits it. To do this, we have came up with four beautiful frame paints that change with the sun: Modern Gray, Sunkist Bronze, and European Silver.
MODERN GRAY
Our new frame paint color Modern Gray is a flat but scaling dark gray color that absorbs sun light depending on the weather. Depending on the amount of light that hits modern gray it scales from a dark rich gray color to lighter more present gray color. This color frame paint works great with gray, black, or silver furniture, creating a modern look.
Suggested canopy color fabrics: Modern Charcoal, French Canvas, Lunar Silver, Indigo Blue, and Cayenne Red.
European Silver
Our European Silver, is designed to match any furniture set, but also change and adapt to sun light when it hits to retain the umbrella’s cantilever pole shape. The color is a very fresh, and inspiring hue that either adds to a silver furniture set, or can be the perfect accent statement piece to your overall design.
The plastic housing and base is in anthracite gray to bring attention to the cantilever pole design, and its’ European heritage. The combination of the silver paint along with the anthracite gray housing allows this kind of silver to match modern and traditional silver painted sets. This combination also allows customers to match it with black and white outdoor furniture with ease. Match it with any of our fabric canopy color tops and it will transform your outdoor space!
Suggested canopy color fabrics: Modern Charcoal, French Canvas, Lunar Silver, Indigo Blue, Cayenne Red, and Paradise Green

Sunkist Bronze

Bronze or brown colors have always been a traditional color of outdoor furniture for its’ neutral color that connects with nature. We have decided to take our color of Sunkist Bronze a next step further by ensuring it changes with the way that sunlight hits it, so that our umbrella always adapts to the weather. As you see in this picture of our bronze umbrella at the Big E, our bronze has taken on a dark chocolate like hue during an overcast day matching the mood of the weather by the way the paint absorbs the sun light.
During a really bright day, our Sunkist Bronze opens up and hints of yellows and light gold kick in and matches a brighter, happy mood of the day. It’s a really fascinating color to see in person as it changes with the sunlight as needed. At one time during the day the top curved pole might absorb the sunlight showing a bright, warm bronze, while the lower part of the pole might be darker being not in the sunlight in a dark chocolate hue. Given the weather, our bronze is always adapting to light around it.
Suggested canopy color fabrics: Sandstone, French Canvas, Indigo Blue, Cayenne Red, and Paradise Green
