Bronze on Granite Markers

Did you know that you can use a granite base as a foundation for your bronze grave marker?

In the past, families were told they had to use a concrete base for a foundation for their bronze marker. I personally have seen how the concrete separates from the bronze and it isn't appealing.

Nowadays you can use a granite stone as a base foundation. When the granite is used it is like picture framing your loved one bronze memorial. There are many different colors of granite available to use as a foundation for your bronze grave marker.

Even with regular cleanings, a cast bronze plaque will develop a patina that usually forms as a green color. The formation of this patina is a normal oxidizing process that creates a natural shield for the bronze. While those who appreciate fine art highly value the patina, others may prefer the original finish. For those who prefer the factory finish, the plaques can be restored through refinishing

There are two methods of refinishing:

We offer a resurfacing kit that allows you to refinish a 500 square inch plaque in about two hours.

Plaques and cast letters can be returned to the factory for refinishing. At the plant, the plaques/letters are sandblasted, sprayed with a selected background color, highlighted and given a new protective coating. Factory refinishing usually takes two - four weeks.

Bronze Grave Markers

Bronze Grave Markers are a cast bronze product. There are different alloys that make up the bronze marker. When selecting your bronze grave markers, it is important to select a reputable bronze marker company. The cast bronze lettering on the bronze memorial should be uniform, as well as in a straight line when looking at the bronze plaque.


A bronze grave marker will with time age-turn green, which is called patina. The patina process will take several years to go through the aging process. Bronze statues from hundreds of years ago are still in very good shape and the quality as well is still very detailed.

When selecting the inscription to be placed on a bronze memorial, it is important to place an epitaph. The epitaph which is placed should be fitting to the one that has passed.

Also with bronze grave markers it is also possible to use standard bronze emblems to personalize the grave marker to the individual. Military Insignias, fishing poles, medical logos are just a few of the bronze emblems that can be applied. Additionally one could also place a flower vase or a color ceramic photo to even better personalize the bronze memorial to the individual.
