Lippincott : Once upon a time a certain Miss Lippincott cast her eyes upon a tattered vintage umbrella that embodied as much attitude as age. This harbinger cast her under a spell, and she exclaimed to herself, " I must design umbrellas." So she searched and found the best umbrella manufacturer in the world, in Italy. In this generations-old factory, it takes twelve people to make an umbrella or parasol by hand - from assembling the frames and handles, to cutting and sewing the fabric, to adding old-world finishing touches. Inspired with the results of her first collection, and overcome with endless new product ideas, she zoomed around Europe and the mountains of New England in search of factories and craftspeople who could meet her exacting standards.
