recognition for producing custom designed and handcrafted redwood
garden bridges for Japanese water gardens, Koi fish ponds and

Press
Release Body: Though handcrafted wooden bridges have been used
for many centuries for things such as draw bridges, spanning crevices,
creeks, ponds, galleys and anything from dips to depressions,
a California-based custom bridge maker is currently receiving
international recognition for spanning the divide between traditional
to modern bridge making.
Japan
started making wooden arch bridges many decades ago to beautify
and maintain Koi ponds and water gardens and now, in part due
to the efforts of Handcrafted Garden Bridges and
its unique use of California Redwood or Western
Red Cedar, other parts of the world are catching on.
Typically made of cedar, pine, Douglas fir, Handcrafted
Garden Bridges uses the more durable, weather, insect
and water resistant California Redwood. By using these materials,
Handcrafted Garden Bridges last for many years. In addition to
using weather and water resistant wood or sealed and stained,
Handcrafted Garden Bridges uses stainless steel
hardware such as bolts, washer, nuts and screws.
As
an added bonus, Handcrafted Garden Bridges are
very easily assembled, taking an average of only 30 minutes to
assemble, and require only a few tools. Each board is numbered
and labeled, and each post and rail easily matches the numbering
system. "All that is required, is to put in the screws
and tighten," said owner and founder Joe Guraro.
"Down through the ages, wooden arch bridges have brought
joy, beauty and comfort to pond owners, homeowners, farmers, and
landscapers," said owner Joe Guraro,
"I'd like to think that my bridges do the same."
He also points out, that besides being an attractive addition
to any garden, it also has an added useful function of opening
up an area that needs to be easily accessed.
