Although we make hundreds of these smaller memorial plaques every year, we take great care to make sure your slate memorial is made just the way you want it. These plaques have a timeless quality and are usually made with unpainted lettering, sandblasted into the slate. However we can paint the letters. Black looks very effective. We can also use White, Farrow & Ball Purbeck Stone (light grey) Farrow & Ball Lichen (light green) Gold and Silver.

Sizes
For smaller memorial plaques we normally use slate which is 12mm or 20mm thick. This can be cut to any size. If you want your slate memorial on thicker slate we have 30mm, 50mm and 75mm available. For a darker finish we can oil the slate. This does tend to hide the natural stone makings. If you want less features in the slate you might want to consider Welsh Slate - many say it is the best slate in the world.
