Memorial stone 'Teardrop'

A stone that holds the memory

Choosing a memorial stone is not an ordinary purchase. You are looking for something that endures, something that reflects who that person truly was, and something that carries quiet meaning for as long as it stands.

Granite: a material built to last

Granite is one of the densest and most durable natural stones used in memorial craft. Quarried from solid rock formations, each piece is then worked with precision into the Teardrop's distinctive form. That process demands real skill: granite is unforgiving, and the finished shape must be earned. The result is a stone that holds its character through frost, moisture and years of exposure, with no intensive maintenance required. The Teardrop is available in several colours, so you can choose a shade that feels right for the person you are remembering.

The shape says something

The teardrop form was not chosen at random. A drop of water is both a beginning and an ending. It is the shape of tears that have fallen, and of water that sustains life. It holds grief and connection in the same outline, and does so honestly. The bond you shared does not disappear, and this memorial stone says so without needing grand words to do it.

Personalisation: your words set in stone

Engraving is available on this memorial stone. You might choose a name and dates, a sentence that captured exactly who they were, or a line from something that always connected the two of you. Something you perhaps never said aloud, but can now set down permanently.

Practical considerations worth knowing

Placing a memorial stone involves a few practical steps that are worth thinking through before you order. Regulations differ from one site to the next, and it is better to know the specifics early.

Check with your cemetery before ordering

Before placing your order, it is advisable to speak with your cemetery manager or local authority first. Many cemeteries specify permitted dimensions, materials and forms for memorial stones, and some require installation to be carried out by an approved local stonemason. Any concrete base slab or pile foundation beneath the stone will typically need to be installed by the cemetery itself. Confirming these details in advance saves time and avoids disappointment.

Proof approval before production

Once your order is placed, we will send you a proof to review before production begins. This gives you the opportunity to check the engraving text carefully and confirm that everything is exactly as you intend.
