| John DiCesare was born in Toronto, Canada. He graduated from York University specializing in Sculpture. He worked as an artist while also doing an arts administration at a number of galleries. He then worked for an extended period of time at a Bronze Art Studio as a Foundry Technician, working on a wide variety of sculptural projects. Over 17 years ago he conceived a series of fantastical umbrella and parasol designs. After coming to Japan and researching umbrella and parasol design he began successfully prototyping and fabricating his designs. |

| Art and engineering come together creating designs which draw inspiration from forms found in nature. DiCesare is currently working on an expanded line of umbrellas and parasols that are fanciful and innovative without parallel. That same spirit of imagination and artistry is being applied to a new series of dramatically distinctive fashion items. DiCesare Designs was founded with the purpose of creating designs that are elegant, unique, and boldly eccentric. |
