Recycled material umbrella
This umbrella is made from old detergent and toothpaste packets, they are collected by groups in the Indonesia where they are sorted and packed, and then made into the umbrella with wooden handle, the tip and handle part are may from a soft silky material.
Monsoon who make these umbrellas have a goal to rid the world of waste plastic and help to provide clean water in those countries where clean water is a luxury.
