Šestine umbrella

The Šestine umbrella dates back to the mid-18th century. It is a part of the folk costume worn in the Šestine region of Zagreb and a recognisable souvenir of Croatia's capital. The craft of making Šestine umbrella, with the traditional Cerovečki techniques, is a part of the register of protected non-material cultural goods of the Republic of Croatia. The Šestine umbrella is characterised by the red cotton canopy with multicoloured horizontal stripes on the edges, thick wooden shaft and naturally crooked chestnut handle
