Headstone Engraving

headstone engraving The difference between headstone carving and headstone engraving is perhaps a grey area! I think however engraving tends to be linked to very fine carving such as this image of a baby in Hopton Wood stone. One relies on the weathering process to make its mark, and in time the moss, lichen and general bacteria will rest in the darker areas and enhance the contrast. A headstone should always improve with age.
