Granite House Signs and
Name Plates and Memorials

LETTERS
Standard colours for painted letters are white, black, Farrow & Ball Purbeck Stone (light grey), Farrow & Ball Lichen (light green). We have a number of other stock colours @ £5, along with memorial gold or silver @ £10. Memorial gold looks very similar to gold leaf. On celtic grey granite white is the best letter colour to use.

The signs are cut from slabs of polished granite and the edges are cut and honed down to a smooth honed finish.

Some people prefer a more natural finish for the surface as well. We have two options here. We can sandblast the surface to reveal the natural granite - cost £5. Aternatively we can sand the top surfacejust enough to remove the gloss 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.

PICTURES
We can include simple pictures on the signs. We have a selection of standard images at a cost of £12.50 each CLICK HERE - or you can send in you own artwork at a cost of £34.50 - Click Here. For very detailed artwork we can inlay a panel which is then laser etched.

BORDERS
We can add a line border with indented or square corners. Another interesting technique is the border in relief where the stone around the outside of the sign is blasted away leaving the required shape in the middle. We also have a selection of decorative borders - Click Here - The decorative etched border can be painted or left unpainted
