Throughout
ages, etchings in stone and rock have been used as long lasting symbols for meaningful communication and decoration. This continues today. Personalized engraved stones and rocks can be carved to include individual names, family names, dates, corporate logos, memorial or commemorative words and sentiments, designs, single words or even your favorite saying.
Ideas for personalization and for uses are only limited by a person’s imagination. Custom engraved stones are often used as home and garden décor accents and unique personalized gifts. However, many individuals continue to use engraved stones for special and meaningful communication. A recent stone engraving project we completed illustrates how this particular person used
stone for a very important message and also as a symbol of strength and longevity, one that will stand
test of time. The engraved stone simply asked
question: “Will You Marry Me?” Romantic proposal, wasn’t it?
