Founded in 1805 James Ince & Sons (Umbrellas) Ltd have been making umbrellas for over 210 years. We are a family run business and the oldest umbrella manufacturer in the UK. We value traditional production methods and hand craft skills which we encourage here in our workshop in Bethnal Green, East London.

We offer a bespoke commission manufacturing service and can tailor the design and style of the umbrella to suit your unique specifications. This combination of quality manufacture and style is recognised by local designers, as well as well known brands, labels and the promotion & incentives industry.

We make all styles of umbrellas from elegant ladies through to solid stick gents umbrellas, city slim umbrellas to large parasols. We also specialise in a variety of workplace umbrellas such as the large Doorman's Umbrellas for the hotel industry; Newspaper Umbrellas for the Newspaper vendors; Bookmakers Umbrellas (mush's) for the races; and Engineering umbrellas for outdoor and trackside work. We also work on creative projects for the theatre and film industry and have great fun in making unusual colourful props.
