Lacy Parasol (RETIRED)

[mamared]

This item was part of Samantha's collection from 2014 until its retirement in 2017. Before becoming part of Samantha's collection, it had been part of Cécile and Marie-Grace's NOLA collection from 2012 to 2014. Reviews of the item while part of that collection can be found HERE.

Like other young ladies of her day, Samantha uses this pretty parasol to shade her face from the sun. It’s made of white lace, opens and closes easily, and has a sculpted golden handle that the Samantha doll can really hold.

This parasol is one from the NOLA collection rebranded. It has a plastic handle and shaft and opens up to a lacy parasol that will shield Samantha from the sun. The details on the handle are beautiful but the plastic is odd paired with lace. The handle has an attached clear plastic loop so Samantha can hold the parasol. It's rather big and clunky to hold though and the parasol is so big, it's just awkward. The parasol top is a little smaller than Samantha's original travel parasol. Samantha can't hold it and the handle isn't long enough to make the parasol shade her head anyway.

It looks nice in pictures as a decoration.
