What is a Headstone? The headstone is a stele placed on top of the grave and usually made of different kinds of natural stones, such as granites, marbles, fieldstone, or sandstone. The type of stone you buy reflects your financial capability. People typically prefer granites and marbles over any other stone for their tombstones because they are readily available in the market. The scribbled thoughts can vary across types of rocks, designs, shapes, and colors on a high budget.


Do you want your headstone to be attractive, given below are the three tips for designing a perfect monument are: 1. Budget 

As in general, there is no average charge of making a headstone. It depends on your choices like the type of stone, size of the tombstone, artwork, design, the color of the tomb, and more. The more you spend, the more attractive your headstone will be.

2. Right kind of stone 

Generally, people prefer granite over marble for their headstones because granites are shiny, cost-effective, and easy to clean, more durable, heat resistant, and require less maintenance. Granites are very easy to cut down and easily modified to give the tombstone shape of your choice, such as flat, slopes, slants, etc.
