One of the most traditional choices when it comes to choosing a stone memorial, upright headstones are composed of two parts, the base and the tablet. The tablet sits ontop of the base and contains engravings of your choice.
Pitched or polished, this type of stone memorial provides a similar style to traditional upright headstones, however, they are shorter and the tablet is carved at an angle.
One of the most affordable options when it comes to marking a memorial, flat headstones are typically level with the ground or set to be raised up to 4 inches from the ground. Another variant of a flat stone memorial are beveled headstones. They are slightly higher in the back than in the front and can be built to be up to 6 inches from the ground.
