Sola

Too beautiful to believe it's real.

That's what we said when we designed and manufactured our first Sola side post umbrella. When our customers saw this stunning patio umbrella for the first time, it also took their breath away.

Technically refined, this rotating and tilting residential side post umbrella has an elegant look with a sporty, nautical flair. It's the perfect choice to complement your pool, deck or patio setting. Without a doubt, the Sola is the most stylish and long-lasting residential side post umbrella on the market today.
