Japanese Garden Ornaments » Bamboo Fence Panels » Bamboo Fence Panels Introduction

One of the most treasured garden structures of the Japanese is the bamboo fence. The subtle texture and colours of natural bamboo compliment the natural stone components of the Japanese garden. For its elegance, beauty and flexibility no other material matches bamboo. There are three basic types of bamboo fences; screen fences, sleeve fences and see-through fences and gates.

Screen fences and see-through fences can be used to partition gardens or border pathways. The tall "wing fence" or "Sodi Gaki" are one of the most well known and popular Japanese fences. They normally extend from the house or a wall as a decorative screen or to define space.
