Decorative Indoor Balinese Parasols

Not every parasol is built for shade. In Bali, small parasols like these have long stood over temple offerings and household shrines, marking a space as special. Our decorative Balinese parasols bring that tradition indoors, handmade in cotton and canvas at 40cm and finished in colours from soft pink and turquoise to gold and natural. They are bought for weddings, celebrations, children's rooms and everyday styling by people who want a piece with a story rather than another ornament.

Handmade Bali Parasols for Indoor Styling and Events

In Balinese tradition the small parasol, known as a tedung, is a symbol of protection and respect, placed over offerings and shrines to honour what sits beneath it. Our decorative parasols carry that heritage in a form made for the home, each one handmade in Bali with a carved wooden pole and a canopy in cotton or canvas, standing 40cm tall. The cotton designs come in soft pink, turquoise and blue, while the canvas versions offer a natural tone and a gold decorated finish that catches the light beautifully. Indoors they work standing in a vase or holder on a sideboard, styled into a shelf arrangement, or grouped in pairs for a mantelpiece with real charm. They have become favourites for wedding tables, baby showers, garden parties and photography styling, where a cluster of parasols in mixed colours creates a striking display for very little effort. These are decorative pieces rather than weather parasols, so they are happiest indoors or under cover, which keeps the fabric bright for years. Care is simple, with an occasional gentle dust being all they ask. If you are looking for full size shade for the garden, our Balinese garden parasols carry the same craft at outdoor scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

How big are the indoor parasols?

40cm, a tabletop and shelf size, not floor-standing. Think of them as sculptural accents for a console, dresser, meditation corner or event table rather than something you sit under.

What are they used for?

Home styling, and constantly for weddings, event tables and photo styling, where a pair flanking a centrepiece creates an instant Balinese setting for £34 to £44 each.

What are they made from?

Hand-loomed cotton or canvas canopies with decorative tassels and brass pendants, on a natural wood pole with an aluminium core. Handmade in Bali, and the pendant detailing carries the same blessing and protection symbolism as the full-size ceremonial parasols.

How do I keep the fabric fresh?

An occasional soft dusting from the top down, and keep it out of all-day direct sun so the colours stay rich.
