The shop opened in July 2016, in one of the oldest and most picturesque street of Blois. My workshop is open to public, thus you may assist to the different steps of the fabrication of an umbrella when you’ll come to visit.
All the models are crafted on site, and it is possible to personalize your umbrella. Beside the choice of the colors, you can also get a picture printed on your umbrella to have an unique one !
I have made handcrafted umbrellas during nine years in a workshop.
I am especially careful with the choice of tissus and materials, quality is my priority. Therefore, all my products avec guaranteed and repairable because I craft umbrellas – for the rain and for the sun – which resist through time.
Again, you may discover in the workshop the manufacturing process of an umbrella, which required no less than 13 steps ! More informations in the rubric « Fabrication ».

Public workshop, where you can experience the craftsmanship of an umbrella or parasol from cutting to final ironing. The visit is free.
In our models, we selected a wide range of fabrics of different materials of the highest quality.
We take great care in making each piece because each umbrella has to be perfect, because its longevity depends.
The umbrellas that come out of our workshop are to follow you as long as possible, obviously they are guaranteed and repaired by us.
We give you the ability to customize your umbrella for some models, choosing your grip, with embroidery, or choosing your fabric. These options can be paid depending on the model and the necessary work.
Today 95% of umbrellas sold in France are imported, we believe it is time to bring up to date the "Made in France". If you have enough umbrellas that end up in the trash after a day or two, do not hesitate and choose an umbrella "House of Umbrellas" and it will take you a long time.
It is possible to organize free personalized tours in groups of 10 people maximum.
