Price History
Description
Shade yourself in style when you're relaxing in your garden with our Shanghai Parasol. Designed with a crank handle to easily open, plus a tilt mechanism to easily tilt. Whereas most parasols have 6 to 8 ribs, the Shanghai has 16 ribs for an attractive oriental shape. Because the ribs are fibreglass, they're strong, flexible, and highly wind-resistant. For optimal durability, we've designed the canopy using heavy-duty 180g polyester in a choice of modern colours. Rated UPF30, it also delivers exceptional protection from the sun's harmful UV rays. Please note, that a parasol base is not included.
Our Stylist Says
I love this parasol for its versatile, timeless appeal and functional size. Its cream tone makes it a great neutral option that suits both traditional and contemporary outdoor spaces, adding a touch of understated elegance. It works well in relaxed garden settings, patios, or even indoor conservatories where natural tones are preferred. Practical styling tips include pairing it with rattan or wooden furniture for a natural look, or using it to soften bold outdoor decor. Its 200cm span provides ample coverage, making it ideal for shading tables or lounging areas, and its classic design means it can be easily integrated into various colour palettes without clashing.

About The Range
Humble Beginnings
In 1980, Chris Dawson set up a simple open-air market stall in Plymouth. By 1989, this entrepreneurial spirit led to the opening of the very first physical store on Billacombe Road, originally named "C.D.S. Superstores". However, in the early '90s, a rebranding took place, introducing "The Range" to the world.
Today, with a whopping 200+ stores across the UK, The Range boasts an impressive selection of over 65,000 products, spreading across 16 diverse departments, all dedicated to enhancing homes and lifestyles.
A Visionary Leader
Chris Dawson, the brain behind The Range, held the CEO position from 1989 to 2017. With a flair for business, Chris's achievements haven't gone unnoticed. He was even ranked fifth in a survey of Britain's Top 100 Entrepreneurs.
Under his leadership, The Range has not only thrived locally but has also hinted at European expansion dreams, envisioning a staggering 1,000 stores across the continent.
More Than Just Stores
You can find The Range in many places, mostly outside town centres, but also in shopping areas. Some stores have a coffee shop called "Dee Dee's", and others even have a food section from Iceland. And if you like online shopping, The Range has got you covered there too with a big online store.
