Our bronze cemetery headstones are available as individual (one plaque now, second added later) or companion configurations, with your choice of eight granite colors, seven bronze finishes, and over 10,000 custom emblem options. Every cemetery headstones bronze order includes a cemetery verification and size check, a layout proof for your approval before production, and free shipping.

What Are Cemetery Bronze Headstones?

Cemetery bronze headstones are flat, grass-level memorials that pair cast bronze plaques with a solid granite base. Each marker holds two individual bronze plaques — one on the left and one on the right — so a single memorial can honor one person now and a second person in the future, or both at once. This companion format makes bronze cemetery headstones one of the most practical options for married couples, partners, or family members who share a cemetery plot. Because the plaques sit flush with the ground, they comply with the flat-marker regulations required by most modern cemeteries.

Sizes and Configurations

We offer cemetery bronze headstones in several standard configurations designed to fit common cemetery plot sizes. Every order begins with a cemetery verification and size check to confirm that your chosen configuration meets the rules at your specific cemetery.

Standard configurations: Two 24″ x 12″ bronze plaques on a 54″ x 16″ x 4″ granite base, or two 24″ x 14″ plaques on a 54″ x 18″ x 4″ base. For families who want a built-in bronze vase between the plaques, we also offer two 24″ x 12″ plaques on a 62″ x 16″ x 4″ base with center vase, or two 24″ x 14″ plaques on a 62″ x 18″ x 4″ base with center vase. If you need a different size to meet your cemetery's requirements, our team can help you find the right fit.

Single plaque option: If only one plaque is needed right now, you can order the left or right plaque individually. We pre-drill the granite base so a second plaque can be added at a later date without replacing the entire memorial. This is a popular choice for families who want to establish the memorial now while one spouse is still living.

Customization and Design Options

Every cemetery headstones bronze order includes names, dates of birth, dates of death, and up to 15 characters of additional lettering — phrases like "In Loving Memory," "Together Forever," or "Rest in Peace." You also receive up to three emblems selected from over 10,000 options, including crosses, praying hands, hearts, roses, hummingbirds, and many more. For a closer look at meaningful phrases and inscription ideas, see our guide to beautiful words to put on a headstone.

Granite colors: Choose from eight standard granite colors at no extra charge, with premium colors available at an additional cost shown in the order form. Bronze finishes: Seven standard bronze colors are included, with premium finishes also available.

Bronze on Granite: Why This Combination Works

Bronze is one of the most durable metals used in memorial markers. It resists corrosion and holds fine detail over decades, making it ideal for personalized inscriptions and detailed emblem work. When mounted on a granite base, the result is a marker built to withstand weather, lawn maintenance, and the test of time. Many cemeteries specifically recommend or require bronze-on-granite flat markers because they sit flush with the ground and do not interfere with grounds maintenance equipment. If you are unsure about your cemetery's requirements, review our guide to cemetery regulations for markers or contact your cemetery directly before ordering.
