A pair of upturned iron umbrellas hung as wall planters, finished in chippy distressed cream that catches the light from a salvaged stable yard.
Parapluie is a set of two iron wall planters shaped like open umbrellas turned upside down, ready to hold a fern, a trailing vine, dried branches or a bouquet of foraged stems. Each planter hangs from a long curved black iron handle styled like an umbrella crook, so the whole piece reads instantly as the object it references. The chippy distressed cream paintwork over dark iron lets the worn metal show through in spots, giving every surface the look of something pulled from a forgotten Provençal garden shed.
The set includes one larger umbrella at 35 cm wide and 54 cm tall (including the hook handle) and one smaller umbrella at 29 cm wide and 40.5 cm tall. Hung as a pair on a hallway wall, a covered verandah, a kitchen splashback corner or a conservatory, they make a quietly whimsical statement that photographs beautifully from any angle.
What's IncludedThis listing is for the Parapluie Umbrella Wall Planter set of two, one larger (35 × 15.5 × 54 cm) and one smaller (29 × 11.5 × 40.5 cm). All plants, dried branches, copper jug, ceramic vessels and other styling props shown in the photographs are for styling purposes only and are not included.
Why we love it
- ◆ Sold as a set of two, one larger and one smaller, so you can hang them as a styled pair at staggered heights without having to source a matching second piece.
- ◆ A piece with a story, "parapluie" is simply the French word for umbrella, and that's exactly what these are, the kind of small, whimsical detail that makes a Provincial home feel personal.
- ◆ Hand-finished, chippy paintwork, the distressed cream over dark iron is applied by hand, so each umbrella reads as genuinely weathered rather than factory-aged.
- ◆ Hangs from any hook or nail, the long curved iron handle slips over a standard picture hook, so installation is as simple as hanging a frame.

How to style them
The Parapluie set is built to be hung as a pair. A few ways to bring them into the home.
- Hang side by side at staggered heights in an entryway or hallway, one filled with trailing pothos or string of pearls and the other left empty as a quiet wall sculpture.
- Place on a covered verandah or under a pergola to hold pelargoniums, herbs or dried lavender bunches for a Provençal garden vignette.
- Use in a powder room or laundry as a soft soap dish or hand-towel pocket above a basin.
- Group with our other garden and wall pieces for a layered Provençal wall arrangement.
Stylist's Tip Hang the larger umbrella roughly 15 to 20 cm lower than the smaller one, slightly offset, so the two hooks sit at different heights. The asymmetry reads as collected rather than matched, which is the whole point of a set like this.
Care & Keeping
Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners. If using as a planter with live plants, place a plastic pot insert inside the iron rather than potting directly, both to protect the chippy finish and to make watering manageable. Suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor use, but bring under cover during extended wet weather to preserve the paintwork.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this listing for one or two planters?
Two. The Parapluie is sold only as a set of two, one larger umbrella (35 × 15.5 × 54 cm) and one smaller (29 × 11.5 × 40.5 cm). You receive both for the listed price, designed to hang together as a pair.
How does it hang on the wall?
The long curved iron handle at the top works like an umbrella crook, hooking over a standard picture hook, a screw or a nail in the wall. No special mounting hardware is required, and no holes need to be made in the planter itself.
Can I plant directly into the umbrellas?
We recommend using a plastic pot insert that fits inside the umbrella rather than potting soil directly into the iron. This protects the chippy paintwork from moisture and makes it easy to lift the plant out for watering. Faux plants and dried branches can sit directly inside without an insert.
Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, in sheltered outdoor spaces such as a covered verandah, conservatory or pergola. For exposed outdoor placement, bring under cover during extended wet weather to preserve the aged paintwork. Indoor use is also lovely, particularly in a hallway, kitchen or laundry.
Is the chippy paintwork a defect?
No. The chipped and worn areas across both umbrellas are part of the design, deliberately hand-finished to read like salvaged metal. Each set is finished individually so the pattern of distressing varies slightly between pieces.
Because the Parapluie set is hand-finished, slight variations in paintwork, distressing pattern, and the depth of the cream-over-iron contrast are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.

Store owner replied: Corinne, a frog doing a handstand for the grandchildren to find is exactly the job we had in mind for him. Thank you for sharing the photo. Lucie
It’s beautiful the only things I thought disappointing Were .. it’s a bit smaller than indicated by 3 cms across the bowl And it’s pretty much all grey not a rustic patchy colour It’s still beautiful
The Willowmere Grey French Provincial Pedestal Bird Feeder, Weathered Grey Cast Iron 58cm
Store owner replied: Thank you so much for the honest review and the photo, Lynne, and I'm so glad you still find her beautiful. The 30cm is measured across the dish including the little bird perched on the rim, so the bowl itself is a few centimetres smaller. We'll make that clearer on the listing. The grey version has a weathered stone finish, chalky on the raised edges and darker in the recesses, so it reads as mostly grey. If you ever fall for the patchier rustic look, the Willowmere also comes in a natural rust finish. Lucie
He is perfect little frog , sitting by my planter
