Designed, created by artist.

Commissioned garden fence of structural steel, copper and glass. Built on a hillside, the glass topped posts of this fence range from 6′ to 9′ to accommodate the changes in grade surrounding the garden. Lower fence sections made with 1/4″ coated steel mesh and extend 8″ into the ground to keep out rodents. Copper wire “webs” descend from each arch as visual interest and to keep deer out of the garden. Gate is 4′ wide to allow easy access for gardeners and equipment.
