Engraved Memorial Portrait - Headstone 21x16cm

Eternity Captured in Stone – Engraved Memorial Portrait 21x16 cm

An engraved memorial portrait is one of the most durable forms of commemorating loved ones. The 21x16 cm dimension is an optimal choice, allowing for high image detail while maintaining proportions that perfectly fit most headstones and urn graves.

Diamond Needle Technique – Why it matters?

At Cempulik.eu, we place special emphasis on quality. Unlike cheaper methods, we create portraits using a specialized diamond needle.

• Precision: This technique allows for the capture of the finest facial details, hair texture, and characteristic features, making the image nearly identical to the provided photograph.
• Durability: Diamond engraving involves physically altering the structure of polished black granite. The resulting image is completely resistant to UV radiation, frost, acid rain, and abrasion.
• Contrast: We use only deep black granite (e.g., Swedish Black), which ensures the highest possible contrast and legibility of the portrait for decades.

Mounting and Application

The granite plate, approximately 1 cm thick, is lightweight yet solid. It can be:

1. Glued directly to the monument using frost-resistant stone silicone.
2. Set in a special notch (base), creating a freestanding decorative element.
3. Integrated into the inscription plaque as an integral part of the headstone design.
