Although time has passed, this item is unused. It seems it was sold as a parasol back then, but the fabric is thin enough to see through, so I don't think it has UV protection like current ones. Therefore, I think it's recommended for photography, etc. The design, as well as the gold-colored center pole, is stylish o(^-^)o Although it is new and unused, it is a used item, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things, and only purchase if you understand. *Regarding price reductions, I can offer a small discount, but I would like to negotiate directly, so please contact me through the comment section instead of requesting a price reduction m(_ _)m
