Beads on Parasol

Bead embroidery is in evidence on parasols, as it is everywhere else, and some good effects are obtained by using the beads as a border dr to motifs on each panel. Beads are also used on the handle, where they are imbedded to the wood in intricate designs or used to simulate eyes and feathers when one of Che new bird handles is decorated.
