Rose Arches

The shortest form of a tunnel is an arch, a Rose Arch.
Its most obvious site is at the entrance to a garden or to a garden “room” where, like the foyer of a theatre, it sets the mood for what is to come.
A well designed Rose Arch is a scene-setter and may create the illusion that the garden is bigger than it is.

Classic Garden Elements offers three designs.
The Victorian Rose Arch with its slightly curved form brings to mind the elegance of gothic arches:
Victorian Rose Arch Kiftsgate and Victorian Rose Arch Brighton.
The round topped Roman Rose Arch pleases with clear and simple features:
Roman Rose Arch Bagatelle and Roman Rose Arch Portofino. 

Japanese traditions and fairly complex spiritual shinto contexts are represented by a TORII arch: Japanese Arch Torii
