My girlfriend bought this at an antique store on Saturday. I was wondering if any of you could shed any light on it?

Marilyn Monroe had a famous one by this company. Not my thing but wondering if there is a connection to the Evan brand compacts? Will look more. Many reproductions of these old umbrellas but charming. I cannot see the sun mark well but possibly an Oriental design.

If I remember correctly Vintage Betty has quite a collection of umbrellas. I'd maybe send her a PM, if her box isn't full?

What a lovely umbrella! I wish I had more to add but I did send off a quick search and came across this website offering vintage umbrella rentals and sales:

I know nothing of umbrellas but I LOVE the handle on that one! What a great find!
