Paddington Bear Classic Marmalade Umbrella

Paddington Bear Classic Marmalade Umbrella

Stay dry when it’s raining with this stylish and practical Classic Marmalade travel umbrella from the Paddington Bear collection. It’s ideal for keeping in your handbag for when the British weather takes a wet turn or for using as a sunshade in summer! This adorable umbrella is a celebration of Paddington’s love for his tasty marmalade.

Featuring original 1958 hand-drawn sketches by Peggy Fortnum, this umbrella is made from lightweight aluminium with a fibreglass frame. This umbrella is adorned with three different illustrations of Paddington, each set against a blue and white striped background which accentuates the motif. He is wearing his iconic red hat and holding a jar of marmalade in all of them. One shows him being blown by a gust of wind underfoot, with the text ‘MMM… MARMALADE’. Another shows him holding a picnic basket and reaching for the marmalade and the final one shows him in his iconic blue duffel coat, holding a jar in his arms, with text that reads ‘PROUD TO BE DIFFERENT’. The segments of the umbrella alternated between illustration and blue and white stripes, which allows the design to standout.

This compact umbrella folds away neatly and comes with a handy matching striped pouch, allowing you to tuck it in your bag when not in use. There is even a handy wrist strap for carrying it if needs be. The perfect accessory to take on an adventure or on a day out, this umbrella is a wonderful gift for anyone with a love for the iconic British children’s character, no matter the occasion.

When open, the umbrella has a diameter of 90cm.

Paddington Bear

Created by author Michael Bond and original illustrator Peggy Fortnum over fifty years ago, Paddington, the accident-prone bear from deepest, darkest Peru, is beloved by children and adults alike. Well-known for his preference of marmalade sandwiches and good intentions, which somehow always result in chaos, the cute bear is never seen without his blue duffel coat and red floppy hat, which is where he hides his marmalade sandwiches. Paddington books have been translated into 30 languages and sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. Many remember the television series which was a highlight of children’s hour on British TV, and the much-loved fictional character is now the star of three films.
