This memorial features a beautiful hand-etched portrait along with sandblasted and painted roses. There is plenty of space for your inscription both on the headstone itself and on the splayed base, two flower vases are also included. This memorial is shown with gold vase pots and gold writing but these can be swapped for silver if you prefer. We have made this memorial from 4" thick granite for added presence.
The portrait is hand-etched by one of our artists and would be based on a photo of your choosing. The price shown is for a single person portrait etching, extra costs apply for multiple people.
The image also shows the memorial with an optional SD22 sandblased 'Dove of Peace' design.

Each letter/character beyond that (cut & gold leaf or painted black/silver/white) costs £1.95 on a new memorial in Granite, Marble, Portland Stone or Nabresina.

I went to see Mum’s memorial, wow oh wow, what an incredible job, it is beautiful, just like my precious Mum. I broke down in tears as it was so amazing, the attention to detail is 100% first class. In this day and age it is hard to find companies in any trade, who have compassion and cares about the end product for their customer. This company certainly does. Natalie who visited me at home, and guided me through the whole process from start to finish is a pure credit to your company.

It’s the little things that matter. Every member of staff that I had the pleasure to speak to far exceeded my expectations. Nothing was too much trouble, and the feeling of never being rushed, added to the overall good experience. We chose a pearl blue granite stone, which looks even better in reality. The finished result, including the cropping of photo to remove a hand and arm proved to be an excellent final touch, something we didn’t expect at all. So to say we are pleased with the overall service would be an understatement. MOD and the extended team provided an excellent service, and would highly recommend them.
