Umbra Umbrella Stands

There are two different styles of Umbra umbrella stands, both of which have resin bases.

The first of the Umbra umbrella stands is the Holdit umbrella stand which is of a minimalist wire design in black. Thanks to its' simple wire construction, it has a light and airy appeal that does not block your entryway. The weighted resin base allows umbrellas to dry quickly, but of course does not absorb moisture, so it remains rust-free. The Holdit umbrella stand works with different types of umbrella and can take up to five umbrellas that need to stand up. However, if you have a folding umbrella that needs to be hung by the wrist band, it can be hung from the top of the wire frame. This umbrella stand takes up minimal space, measuring only 6" x 3" and standing just over 16 inches high.


The second of the Umbra umbrella stands is the Hub umbrella stand and is available in two designs. This looks as good as your furniture and will take four umbrellas, and also has two hooks inside the upper ring for small umbrellas that fold down. As with the Holdit umbrella stand, this has a resin base in a choice of black or white, and a bent ash wood or walnut handle with an upper ring also in black or white. It is available in black and walnut, or white with the natural ash wood.

The Hub umbrella stand was designed by Jordan Murphy. Jordan designed the umbrella stand because he was always losing his umbrellas because he was never able to keep them in one place, so he created the Hub stand so that it would be as good looking as his furniture, and he was happy to have it out in the open.

The Hub umbrella stand co-ordinates with the rest of the modern and sleek Umbra furniture collection, and it really doesn't take up very much space at all, measuring only just under 9" in diameter at the base and with the walnut or ash wood handle standing just two feet three inches high.

Clocks Are an Essential Part of Our Lives

Image
What would we do without clocks? Throughout our waking hours we need to know what the time is. We need to know if it’s time to leave the house to get the train to work. We need to know if its coffee break time, lunch time, time to leave the office, time to put the dinner on, time to go to the football match, and even time to go to bed. OK, many of us have a watch, although more people today rely on their mobiles to tell the time. But when you have a clock, all you need to do is to look at it on the wall and it tells you the time. You don’t have to get your phone out of your pocket or handbag and switch it on – just look at the clock on the wall. That is why there is a plethora of modern clocks that you can buy. They still do the same thing that Victorian ones did, but they just look as though they were made in the 21st century. Having said that, there are modern clocks that are made using Roman numerals which gives us a hint of times gone past, but there are...

Some Examples of the Many Designs of Modern Wall Clocks

One of the most important things in our lives is time. It has a habit of passing, and once it has done so we can’t get it back. It has gone forever. However, time rules a lot of our lives. We have to be at work on time. We have to catch a train on time. The beef is going to take some time to cook. This or that is taking a long time. So it follows that we frequently need to know what time it is, and for that we have watches and clocks. Many homes have wall clocks in the sitting room, the kitchen, the bedroom, and sometimes even the bathroom, because we constantly need to check the time. There are some really great designs of modern wall clocks available, some of which might be described as “way out”. For example, one of the modern wall clocks is the Invotis Wall Gear and Date Clock which consists of a set of gear wheels which turn slowly and move a large gear wheel which tells the time. The clock has two smaller gear wheels which also display the month and...
