A headstone and base is a popular monument style in Sydney's cemeteries. It's an ideal choice for families looking for a dignified, personalised memorial with plenty of space for an inscription, symbols, a ceramic photograph and accessories such as a vase.
A single upright headstone mounted on a granite base. The most common configuration, suitable for one person with space to reserve for a second inscription in the future.
A wider headstone and base designed to commemorate two people. Available in a range of granite colours and finishes with space for two full inscriptions.
A selection of recent headstone and base installations across Sydney's cemeteries.
We work with a wide range of granite colours and finishes. Our masons will confirm which options are available for your specific cemetery section and advise on the most appropriate choices for your memorial.
From a simple flat top to an arched or shaped profile, the silhouette of the headstone is one of the most significant design decisions. We will guide you through the options available and help you choose a shape that suits the memorial.
We advise on inscription wording, font selection and layout, and prepare a full design proof for your approval before any work begins. Cut-in, gold leaf and painted enamel lettering are all available.
Religious symbols, cultural motifs, ceramic photographs and accessories such as vases can all be incorporated where the cemetery section permits. We will advise on what is available for your specific section.
Prices vary depending on the granite selected, inscription complexity, accessories and cemetery permit fees. Our quotes are fully itemised with no hidden costs.
