Plaques

Plaques are a lying down memorial used in lawn cemeteries throughout New Zealand and an alternative to upright headstones. The preferred material is granite in all cemeteries with some allowing bronze in certain areas.

Plaques for burial and ashes areas are similar in style but they can vary in size. We can advise you of public and private cemetery specifications around the Wellington area and throughout the rest of New Zealand.

We can supply any size and type of plaque you require, arrange installation or have the memorial ready to pick up at our yard or sent directly to you.

Please view the examples in the gallery to see the different plaque options available.

The following pages show different aspects of the plaques to help you can decide what style of finish, what plaque you would prefer.
