Slant Markers

Slant Markers Dealer & Design Experts in NJ

Choosing a memorial for your loved one is a big decision. At Da Vinci Gravestones & Monuments, we’re here to help you understand your options, including slant markers and slant on base markers. Both are beautiful choices, but they have some key differences. Knowing these details can help you decide what works best for your family. With over 80 years of experience, we’ve helped families all across New Jersey create meaningful, lasting tributes. Let’s dive into what makes these two types of markers unique.

What Are Slant Markers?

Slant markers are headstones that have a slanted front, making it easy to see inscriptions and designs. These markers sit directly on the ground and have a simple, elegant look.

Key Features of Slant Markers:

Slanted Front: Makes inscriptions easy to read.
Small Size: Great for places with limited space.
Strong Materials: Usually made of granite, so they last a long time.
Affordable: Since they don’t need a base, they’re often less expensive.

If you’re looking for a classic and subtle memorial, slant markers are a wonderful choice.

What are Slant on Base Markers?

Slant on base markers are similar to slant markers but include an extra base underneath. The base gives them more height, stability, and space for designs.

Key Features of Slant on Base Markers:

Raised Look: The base makes the marker stand taller and look more noticeable.
More Design Space: You can add details to both the marker and the base.
Better Stability: The base helps keep the marker in place for many years.
Elegant Style: These markers have a polished and refined appearance.

These markers are ideal if you want something eye-catching and personalized.

How to Choose the Right Marker

Here are some things to think about when deciding:

Cemetery Rules: Make sure the cemetery allows the style you want.

Customization Options for Both Styles

No matter which types you choose, you can personalize your marker to make it truly special:
