Q. What are the different headstone materials?

Answer: 

Some different headstone materials are granite, bronze, marble, limestone and stainless steel.

  • Granite is one of the best and most durable materials, which can withstand any weather condition.It is available in a variety of colors and is affordable.

  • Bronze and granite are similar because both materialsare durable, resilient and easy to maintain. However,bronze is generally more expensive than granite. It is easy to cast amazing designs, symbols and lettering on bronze headstones.

  • Marble is strong and aesthetic, but it is not as durable as granite. The inscriptions are likely to fade with time.

  • Nabresina and Portland limestones are widely used headstone material. They look good and are usually permitted in the cemeteries. Limestones are not as durable as other materials and cannot withstand extreme weather conditions.

  • Stainless steel is a modern headstone and can last for a long time.
