Refurbished antique parasol frame with leaf-motif carved handle and matching batik canopy
by first-year grad student Leah Pelz.

First-year grad Kelly Renko restored this parasol frame, which had three broken ribs
and a missing handle, to create this steampunk-inspired parasol with its long
brass-fitting-adorned stick and its black lace-covered fringed canopy.

The two parasols closed.

Refurbished vintage frame with figured cotton cover by undergraduate Michelle Bellamy.

Restored antique frame with lace-print cotton tasseled cover
by Wardrobe Supervisor Whitney Vaughan.

Whitney lined her parasol in purple cotton and scalloped the edge.

Second-year Adrienne Corral restored this 1920s antique parasol frame,
and created this lovely patterned cotton canopy.
