Maison Piganiol
The Berger Umbrella
An authentic hand-crafted umbrella appreciated and loved by true umbrella connoisseurs, the Berger umbrella is the standard bearer of Maison Piganiol. Adhering to the tradition of their heritage and lineage in this modern age, these umbrellas have been produced since 1884 in the same manufacturing plant in Aurillac, using the same techniques and methods. The exquisite craftsmanship is evident in all aspects of the umbrella, from the hand-carved rod to the wooden frame.
Also called a “shepherd’s umbrella,” for the shepherd who is protected by the wide breadth of the umbrella to sit under it on the slope of a hill or mountain, these umbrellas are often purchased for use on French vineyard estates and large European estates, country, and seaside homes. Today, the modern shepherds of the Pyrenees Mountains still buy their umbrellas from Maison Piganiol.
