Pathein Umbrella


Myanmar parasols have their origin in Pathein, a town in the Delta Region. Hence their name - Pathein Htee in Myanmar Language. In fact, it also is produced elsewhere in the country.


The covering of parasols at first was paper to be replaced later by cotton, silk and taffeta. Oil -Soaked cloth is good for long lasting use.
The main raw materials for a Pathein umbrella are wood and bamboo. For the umbrella ribs, locally grown Thara Khu bamboo is used. However, it's not enough for it to just be Thara Khu bamboo. The age of the bamboo must also be considered.
For the umbrella canopy, cotton, silk, or cloth is used.
