Shady and Lacy

Chris Kabels' sun parasol, like many of the outdoor goods at the Conran shop is beautifully made and not exactly cheap. But then, where else would you get a vivid green plastic canopy' which is designed to give the user the illusion of 'sitting beneath a tree'. Ok, so this dappled light is going to cost you £335 (this does not include the base) and has to be taken indoors when not in use so practicality is questionable here, but it reminds me of our Tord Boonjte garland light, which when I gaze at it, never fails to make me smile.
