THE
ANATOMY
OF AN
UMBRELLA
EDITORS LETTER
An umbrella or parasol (also called a brolly, parapluie, rainshade,
sunshade, gamp, bumbershoot, or umbrolly) is a canopy designed to
protect against rain or sunlight. The word parasol usually refers to
an item designed to protect from the sun; umbrella refers to a device
more suited to protect from rain. Often the difference is the material;
some parasols are not waterproof. Parasols are often meant to be
fixed to one point and frequently used with patio tables or other
outdoor furniture. Umbrellas are almost exclusively portable handheld
devices; but parasols can be handheld too. The collapsible (or folding)
umbrella originated from China and had sliding levers similar to those
in use today.
The word umbrella comes from the Latin word umbra, meaning shade
or shadow (the Latin word, in turn, derives from Ancient Greek,
ómbros [όμβρος].) Brolly is slang for umbrella and is frequently used
in Britain, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and Kenya.
In Britain, umbrellas are sometimes called “gamps” after the
character Mrs Gamp in Charles Dickens’ novel Martin Chuzzlewit.
Mrs Gamp’s character was wellknown for carrying an umbrella.
Bumbershoot is a fanciful Americanism from the late 19th century.

Stylish yet bold. The colours are hushed black and white but in
everything else, the shape, the flounce and the patterns are jazzy
loud. The combination of features makes the umbrella a work of
art for rainy days.
