The Big Ben pieces are photographed but not cut out to scale, so this band shows similar pieces that are — same house, category or industry. The collection's own photography is on its pieces.
Canopy
Shape and size, printed exactly as the maker's own book records them.
square, rectangular, round
rectangular range (p.34): 200x300, 300x600, 400x650, 200x350, 350x400, 400x700, 200x400, 350x450, 450x550, 250x300, 350x500, 450x600, 250x350, 350x550, 450x650, 250x400, 350x600, 450x700, 300x350, 350x650, 500x550, 300x400, 400x450, 500x600, 300x450, 400x500, 500x650, 300x500, 400x550, 500x700, 300x550, 400x600 cm; square/round range (p.35): 300x300, Ø300, 350x350, Ø350, 400x400, Ø400, 450x450, Ø450, 500x500, Ø500, 550x550, Ø550, 600x600, Ø600, Ø650, Ø700 cm; source also prints an unlabelled 4th headline size row '6m' (shape unspecified) — not used for w/d/diam given ambiguity
Mast & frame
What the canopy stands on, and what it is built from.
centre-post (inferred: same single-pole telescopic-erection language as Samara/Centro/Grande; no cantilever/lateral/rotary-base language found for Big Ben)
high-grade aluminium, pole 84mm diameter x 5mm wall; RAL colour per colour chart
Mechanism
The maker's own printed term leads; the line beneath explains that term only.
Crank mechanism or motor (optionally with solar panel or WMS radio system)
Crank mechanism or motor (optionally with solar panel or WMS radio system) is the mechanism as printed; no further detail is recorded.
How it works
A generic walkthrough for this mechanism family, not a claim about this specific model.
A single pole rises through the centre of the canopy and carries its full weight and wind load down to a base. The canopy opens, closes and, where the row supports it, tilts along that one central support.
Wind
Printed only where the maker rates it.
Wind-tunnel tested by structural engineers: the 3x3m version withstands winds up to 100 km/h (p.35, verbatim: 'Wind-stable up to 100 km/h!')
Base pairing
Base codes as printed. Linked only where that code is itself a catalogued product.
- cross-referenced to consolidated 'Parasol Bases & Ground Sleeves' range (p.78)
- p.37 shows Big Ben pictured on a Multicube (60cm) base
Fabric
The canopy fabric as specified.
Premium awning fabric 100% acrylic (120+ colours); fireproof fabric and PVC fabric upgrade options both printed (p.93).
Custom
Beyond the standard range.
Casualife customises umbrellas to a project's own requirements, not only the standard range. Selected ranges are made to measure — canopies built to a site's own shape and size, poles produced to the wall they mount on — and a canopy can be configured by shape, size, fabric and frame colour, then branded and printed to order. Share a brief with our Custom Studio and we will confirm what's possible.
Made-to-measure canopies
The Freestyle line is built to a site's own shape and size rather than picked from a fixed size table — up to 7 m along one side and 36 m² of shade, provided the shorter side is at least half the longer one.
Poles built to the wall
Start a custom briefThe Amalfi's wall-mounted pole is produced to order against the wall's own dimensions, including installation height and crank height, rather than supplied as a fixed-length stock part.
