For smaller spaces or some types of tables, small patio umbrellas are the best choice. In these smaller sizes both square and the typical 8 rib varieties of umbrella are available. Here are examples of a 6 foot diameter and a 4.5 foot market umbrella.

Please keep in mind that small patio umbrellas do provide less shade than the larger 9 foot variety.

Typical patio umbrellas are 9 feet in diameter. Anything smaller than that can be considered to be a small market umbrella. 6 foot is a typical size for smaller umbrellas, such as the following items.

4.5, 6.5, 7, 7.5, and 8 foot models can also be found. Perhaps surprisingly, 9 foot models are sometimes cheaper than the smaller models, probably because the larger umbrellas are more common.

Hope this helps you in your search for a small market umbrella.
