Thoughts on patio and poolside living. A blog by Claire - The Patio Umbrella
Can I use by existing inground fitting for a Serengeti Cantilever parasol?

We spoke just now about the parasol you may be interested in which I think is the Serengeti Eclipse. Here is a link to the parasol on our site so you can double check that I am correct.
Serengeti Eclipse Cantilever Parasol - Ecru
Regarding the inground base, the mast of the parasol is square but it fits onto a circular upright section which in turn is bolted to the inground piece. I attach an image of the inground fitting that we usually supply with the parasol.
Your existing inground fitting, needs to come with a top section as well in order to fit our parasol - if you fit the parasol direct into the inground, you will lose a lot of parasol height.
If you think you have the right inground base, with a top section, let me know and I will get the warehouse to measure the diameter of the parasol mast so we can see if it fits with what you have. As I said, I have always sold the Serengeti base with the parasol, so this is new to me!
