Parasol
Made by Dupuy, this parasol is a finely crafted French accessory. The fabric is of particular interest in that it is very much in the mode of the naive designs produced and popularized by the workshop Martine of Paul Poiret. The piece is all-together charming and a wonderful artifact of the Belle Époque.
