LASER ETCHED INSCRIPTION (Black Granite Only)

Laser etched granite inscriptions have become a popular, cost effective and more detailed option for memorials and monuments as technology has improved over the last decade. By engraving into high quality black granite, the laser removes 0.2mm off the polished finish to leave the inscription exposed in the natural rock. After this process is completed the exposed natural rock is painted in with whitening enamel giving the etching a more prominent contrast.

At Piddingtons we have been producing our own laser etched products since 2017.

Providing micro-millimetre accuracy, clean results and photo realistic detail for images, logos, mascots and motifs, a well-designed laser inscription can be the perfect tribute and memorial for your loved one.

SAND-BLASTED INSCRIPTION

Sandblasted inscriptions offer their own traditional beauty, the inscription or design is masked off on the stone with adhesive vinyl leaving only the exposed rock that will become the inscription or motif. As sand is blasted on to the surface to removes the granite leaving a 1.5-2mm deep inscription, this allows for other processes like gilding or painted in letters/coloured motifs.

Sandblasting is still very popular for full monuments, headstones, add on inscriptions or to add a historic charm to a loved one’s memorial or monument. Both sandblasted and laser etched inscriptions can be used on a single memorial to create a mix or traditional charm with modern precision, for more details please contact our staff.

Full Raised Polished Panel

An epitaph is a short text commemorating a deceased person that is inscribed on a plaque or tombstone. Our 50 short epitaph examples will provide you with several simple sayings that can be engraved on any gravestone or other monument. They are often patterned with expressions of respect and love, such as “Beloved Mother of…” or “Forever In Our Hearts”.

Typically epitaphs are used figuratively and are a general saying used to commemorate the life of the person. You can see in the epitaph examples below that most are short, simple statements. However, the epitaph can also be in the form of a quote, poem, verse or other saying. The epitaph can also be specific to the deceased person. It can be words they spoke or chose beforehand, or can be a statement that describes the individual.

50 Short Epitaph Examples

The epitaph that you write may be based on a number of factors, such as the size of the monument and your budget. However, no matter what your requirements, you will want to create a heartfelt permanent monument for your loved one. Feel free to copy one of the short epitaph examples word-for-word, or use it as part of a large epitaph to create a beautiful monument that pays tribute to your loved one.

Epitaph Examples

• He/She Touched The Lives Of Many • He/She Will Never Be Forgotten • In God’s Care • In Loving Memory • In Memoriam • In One Of The Stars I Shall Be Living • Life Is Not Forever, Love Is • Love Is A Light That Never Dims • May His/Her Light Guide You • Mourn Not My Death, But Celebrate My Life • My Lifetime Companion • One Of A Kind • Our Little Angel • Our Love Is Eternal • Rest In Peace • Strong In Love, Brave In Spirit • The Best Is Yet To Come • Together Forever • Until We Meet Again • We Miss You • We Remember How You Loved Us • We’ll Be Together Again • What We Keep In Memory, Is Ours Forever • Wonderful Was Your Love For Us • Your Light Will Shine Forever

• A Friend In Deed • A Love, True And Constant • A Loving Husband/Wife And Father/Mother • A Sharing, Caring Person • A Special Kind Of Love • A Woman/Man Of Grace And Dignity • Always A Gentleman/Lady • Always In Our Hearts • An Inspiration To All Of Us • An Unforgettable Person • Asked For So Little But Gave So Very Much • Because He/She Cared • Brave In Spirit, Strong In Love • Constant Of Faith, Generous By Heart • Devoted In Love • Everybody’s Best Friend • Faith, Hope And Courage • Faithful Forever • Forever Grateful And Faithful • Forever In Our Hearts • Forever Missed • Gone But Never Forgotten • He/She Enriched Our Lives • He/She Inspired Us All • He/She Lived To Help Others
