This cabbage umbrella appears to be a genuine vegetable that you’ll find in the supermarket.

With the wrinkled leaves and yellowish-green hue, we bet even vendors may have a hard time distinguishing this version from the edible ingredient.

Place it in your pantry or basket and watch your auntie’s expression change upon realising that it’s actually not a vegetable.

Green umbrella with wrinkled ‘leaves’

Besides being useful for pranks, this intriguing product is also practical. Even if you use it regularly, the cabbage-like frills and wrinkles won’t fade.

Apparently, the texture of the fabric is even inspired by the structure of the leaves.

As a result, it can repel water during rainy days or serve as an effective shield from the sun during fair weather.

Available for purchase on Rakuten Japan

The cabbage umbrella from Rakuten is currently retailing for S$60.50 (¥4,950).

It is also available on the Koncent Japan website at the same price.
