Square parasol CYGNUS

side postcantileveraluminum

Product overview
Cygnus provides nine square metres of shade with no centre pole: the pole is positioned to the side and the canopy is suspended from a horizontal arm. The parasol opens and closes assisted by a push-open gas piston for effortless operation and rotates 360° around the pole via a lever so the shade follows the sun while furniture underneath stays in place.

Short description
Cygnus opens nine square metres of shade with no centre pole. One light touch and the shade is already above you, for a terrace lunch that stretches past four, for a full afternoon by the pool. The sun moves, you turn the lever: everything underneath stays right where it is.

Main highlights

• Push-open gas piston: open and close in seconds, even from your seat.
• 360° rotation with lever: the shade follows the sun, the table stays put.
• Acrishade fabric 260 gsm, UPF 50+: colour-stable season after season.
• Commercial-grade aluminium frame with an arm and 8 rigid ribs.
• Top air vent to release gusts and help stabilise the canopy.
