I received some Manchu cavalry command figures, which included umbrella bearers. I cannot find any information on these. Can anyone give me a source for colors for these?

Umbrellas? As in parasols? Interesting. I would have thought they only had bannermen. I guess their leader believed himself the emperor and didn't want to get wet or tanned. :) Dan

I use the little umbrellas from the exotic drinks in Chinese Restaurants.
