Hood Heart MemorialBlack granites like Jet Black and Black Galaxy take fine detail beautifully – laser-etched portraits and scenes are at their sharpest on black. If you are considering an etched memorial, black granite is usually where we start. Ask a designer to show you samples side by side.
No – granite holds its polish for generations. We recommend an occasional gentle wash; the finish itself does not wear away outdoors.
Laser and hand etchings expose the lighter stone beneath the polished surface, so black gives portraits and scenes their highest contrast and detail.
