An umbrella handle (1) has an aperture at one end into which an umbrella shaft (9) can be inserted. The handle has a sleeve-shaped integral axial extension (2) on the shaft side for receiving a tip-cup (6) to be slidably mounted thereon, the sleeve (2) having an abutment (4) over which a tip-cup (6) can be passed before assembly of the handle (1) to an umbrella shaft (9), to prevent the tip-cup (6) sliding off the extension (2) along the shaft after assembly. This one-piece construction ensures accurate tolerances for the tip-cup on the shaft and is easy to manufacture.
