Engraved Granite Ledgers
Ledger Markers are a beautiful and stately way to create a memorial that leaves a lasting impression. Ledger headstones can be made of granite or bronze and can be configured in both horizontal and vertical layouts.
While they appear similar to Flat Markers, they are closer in style to Pillow Markers because they are NOT flush set into the ground but installed above grade level. Many Ledger headstones incorporate a granite base below the actual Ledger, where the inscription work is featured, and an upright die at the head for even more design possibilities, thus creating a regal tribute.
Other Ledger styles are simpler, featuring the Ledger itself set into a gravel bed or installed on a concrete pad.
Ledgers can cover the entire width and depth of the plot, or they can be half the plot size, three-quarters, etc., but in any case, they will depend entirely on cemetery specifications. Contact us today if you want to explore this distinguished memorial option.
