Description: The Canebrella 2011 is
an all improved walking stick that doubles up as an umbrella. Designed by Zhi
An, the Canebrella is small in size, light weight, portable, ergonomically
elderly-friendly, and easy to use. It has four suction cups at the base to
provide stability when using the product. There is a universal joint at the
