Know before you buy
Yes, the canopy is treated with Teflon to repel water and dirt, making it well-suited for outdoor conditions. However, we recommend closing the umbrella during high winds and storing it in a dry place during the off-season to preserve the wood and fabric.
The Messina Umbrella is available both with and without a base, giving you the flexibility to use your own mounting solution or purchase the matching concrete base separately.
Meranti is a durable, resilient wood, but it should be cleaned periodically with a soft cloth and mild soap. To maintain its appearance and longevity, you may occasionally apply a wood oil suitable for outdoor furniture.
The umbrella stands 86.6 inches tall with a canopy diameter of 82.7 inches. The pole diameter is 1.4 inches, which is a standard size compatible with most umbrella stands.
FSC-Certification ensures that the wood used in the pole is sourced from forests managed in an environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable manner. Approximately 71% of the wood used in this umbrella meets these rigorous sustainability standards.
