Designing your own Bevel Grave Marker.
The Bevel Grave Marker is the slightly elevated cousin to the always popular Flat Grave Marker Style. We say elevated because instead of the standard flat top face, Bevel Markers slope from 6″ in the back to 4″ in the front.
Being so closely related to a flat marker, a lot of the design elements cross over. With Bevels though, they are almost never buried, so the side options become customizable.
Throughout this article we will be covering:
Sizes Of Flat Grave Markers
Like Flat Markers, there are many different sizes of Bevel Grave Markers. Most rely on the number of people that are being memorialized or the seer amount of story that needs to be told.
A Bevel Marker for one person is likely to be 24” left to right x 12” front to back x 04”-06″ thick. That front to back slope allows for the engraving to be red from a distance.
As mentioned previously, the bevel is installed to rest on top of a base and then on top of the ground. Not buried like their flat marker peers. This subtle change opens up many more angles for us to engrave and you to further tell your story.
