The desk tablet is a popular design, and this variation includes a relief carved book for your inscription, as well as featuring a flower vase at the flat top. This design can be made with or without the gilded cord and tassel in the centre of the book, see prices above.
Lettering: The first 80 letters is free. 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.

Excellent service from the whole team at Memorial of Distinction. They answered all our questions quickly by phone or email however daft they were. They gave regular updates on progress and even in these Covid times turned the stone round in the quoted time. The headstone and edging look amazing as well as the price being very competitive. I highly recommend this firm.

This is just a warm thanks to you and your team for the construction of my late husband’s Memorial. It looks lovely, simple, sleek and classy just what he would have liked.
I have had lots of lovely comments on just how nice it looks. The two 6″inches pillars on the sides which you suggested, has given it impact you can spot it a mile off.
So thank you again.
