Description
Companion headstones are specially designed memorials that honor two individuals, often a couple or close family members, who wish to be remembered side by side. These headstones symbolize togetherness, eternal love, and shared memories. They are typically crafted from durable materials like granite or marble. Companion headstones come in various shapes, such as double uprights, flat markers, or heart-shaped designs. They usually feature two separate inscription panels—one for each individual, on a shared base. Families often choose companion headstones for their sentimental value, as they represent unity and a lasting bond even in rest.
These headstones can be customized with names, birth and death dates, quotes, religious symbols, or even engraved portraits. Many families also add a shared last name across the top or center. Companion headstones are available in a variety of colors, finishes, and sizes to suit different cultural preferences and cemetery regulations. Granite, especially in shades like black, grey, red, and blue, remains a popular choice due to its strength and beauty.
For B2B buyers, such as funeral homes, monument dealers, and distributors, companion headstones are a key product offering. They are in steady demand among families planning ahead or honoring their loved ones together. With flexible design options, easy personalization, and durable materials, companion headstones make for a reliable and profitable addition to any memorial catalog.
