Solid Oak Garden Gazebos From Orlestone Oak
Monday, May 18th, 2009
If staying in is the new going out, then where better to while away sunny summer days, than in your very own bespoke gazebo from Orlestone Oak.
Orlestone Oak design, build, and install bespoke gazebos of the highest specification made from solid oak using traditional oak frame techniques.
Post and brace joints are hand carved mortise and tenon with hand-made 5-sided tapered pegs; this ensures that the joint is under tension and keeps the joints tight as the timber shrinks.
The word gazebo originates from the English verb “to gaze” combined with the Latin ending “bo”, giving the meaning “I will look”.
It’s easy to understand how this naming occurred, as a gazebo is the perfect place to relax and observe beautiful surroundings.
Working with Orlestone Oak’s design team, customers can specify their own choice of roof tiles, timber shingles or even thatch; they can also specify their chosen floor, whether it be brick, tiles or timber decking, making each gazebo truly unique.
Orlestone Oak is an established manufacturer of exceptional hand-built oak-framed buildings with a 20year reputation for excellence. All timber is sourced from sustainable forests in the UK and Europe.
