Arbors, trellises, pergolas
This arbor was designed with an arch shape and chunky hardware & decorative wooden overlays to reflect the country Italian style of the house. The shade cloth provides protection from the hot midday sun & helps keep the heat in from the gas heater. The fan helps cool diners as well as keeps the yellow jackets away. When the heater is on, it helps spread it down & around the table.
