Headstone engraving options;
There are four headstone lettering options to choose from. Ultimately, how you want the wording to look will depend on your personal tastes and choice of granite. It’s important to understand that some options will require more maintenance than others.
Additional inscriptions
This is a common scenario when there’s an existing monument for two (sometimes more) people. When the second person passes, a new inscription needs to be put on.
Cut in
As the name suggests, the letters are the only part of the rock exposed to the sandblaster. This option is a simple, cost effective, and bold engraving option that requires no maintenance.
Raised
The opposite of cut in, this is where everything but the wording is exposed to the sandblaster. Just like cut in, the inscription will require no maintenance, making it a popular option with customers.
Gold leaf
For those looking for a more elegant finish, the gold leaf option is a suitable choice. For gold inscriptions, the letters are engraved more deeply and are then gilded with gold leaf. As the headstone is outside and therefore exposed to elements, the inscription will require some maintenance over time in order to keep that shiny finish.
Silver paint
Offering something a little more unique, a silver paint finish provides a slick and bold look. However just like gold leaf, it is prone to weathering and therefore requires ongoing maintenance.
