Application Guide

Memorial & Monument Granite

Monument blanks, markers, bases and ledgers in the deep, consistent colors the memorial trade depends on.

Memorial work demands the most consistent granite in the trade: deep blacks, true reds and stable greys that polish to a flawless face and hold engraving crisply for generations.

Monument dealers typically buy sawn blanks, polished markers and bases in standard dimensions, with all-polished or margin-detail finishing to order.

Kasini can coordinate memorial-grade material — blanks, markers, bases, ledgers and custom shapes — inspected for soundness, shade and polish quality before shipment.
