When a large amount of small text is required we suggest mounting an engraved corian memorial plaque onto a granite wedge. As standard we use a polished silver grey granite or a polished black granite which are made in the sizes listed below. Stock sizes are very good value but bespoke sizes and other colours can also be quoted for.

We can engrave the letters directly into the granite wedge. We do this using our sand blasting technique for larger letters and engraver for small lettering. The letters are then painted - black, dark blue, grey, cream, white, silver or gold. We also have Farrow & Ball match - Lichen which is a pale green and F&B Purbeck Stone which is a light grey. |

![]() Black Granite Wedge used for mounting Corian Plaque |
The blank granite wedges come to us highly polished. Sometimes our customers prefer a more natural finish. We have two options here. We can sandblast the surface to reveal the natural granite - cost £5. Aternatively we can sand the top surface to a matt finish at a cost of £15. The Celtic Grey Granite looks very attractive with the sandblasted finish but most people prefer the black with a gloss finish. |

These are very attractive especially when wet as all the layers of slate on the surface of the wedge look incredible beautiful. The surface of the wedge is polished to a silky smooth finish. However please be aware that the slate will have natural features running through it. Click here to see a typical example. Engraved lettering on slate wedges can be as small as 15mm high - this is smaller than granite. For small letters use simple fonts without serifs. As standard letters can be left unpainted or painted - black, grey, cream, white, gold, Farrow & Ball Purbeck Stone which is light grey or F&B Lichen which is light green. For other paint colours - click here. |

Stone Wedges wih Detailed Inlaid Panel
Where there is lots of lots of text or images with fine detail are required we can inlay a colour panel which is then laser etched. The panel can be in any of our stock colours. White or light grey are very popular. The panel can be take up most of the surface or just be a smaller inlaid oval, square or rectangle. It could be used for a detailed image such as a line drawing or maybe a poem. |
