THE STRAWBERRIES

Natural stone with an intelligent and subtle design

The customer had seen a similar design on our website and contacted us for more information about how to design her own headstone for her parents.

When she discovered that we hand carved designs from scratch she decided to personalise the headstone by introducing her own idea.

The engraving within and around the panel is that of a strawberry plant where each strawberry represents a member of the family - i.e. the offspring of the couple - how in life they bore fruit which is beautifully symbolised and celebrated.

The flowers have been incorporated to allow for more grandchildren in the future.

Sandstone was chosen as the material because it is natural, quarried locally and harmonises with the landscape.

The letters were finished with an ivory coloured finish to compliment the natural stone colours.

The memorial message reads:

True Love
The name of the deceased couple
D.O.B and D.O.D. dates.

This joint headstone replaced the previous stone and celebrates the love and bond between the successive generations of the growing family.

We also design, sculpt, carve and engrave memorial garden stones, plaques and grave markers. Bespoke designs are often requested to commemorate the death of a child and we are sensitive to peoples exacting requirements when babies and children are to be remembered.

Anything is possible

Many people turn to us after being told that it is not possible to meet their design requirements. We pride ourselves on producing the designs that others turn away, such as life size sculpture and crypts. For the truly unique monumental stone work, you have found the right place.
