Headstones Gravestones & Memorials in St Albans & the surrounding area
Artisan Memorials is a family-run business with over 30 years of experience in monumental stonemasonry. We create fully bespoke headstones and gravestones for customers in St Albans and the surrounding area that celebrate life and preserve cherished memories.
Our goal is to create beautiful and unique memorials that serve as a lasting tribute to the memory of your loved one. We believe that everyone should have access to a bespoke memorial that reflects their loved one’s personality, and we strive to balance high-quality materials and craftsmanship with affordable prices.
Unlike most memorial masons our background is rooted in the art of calligraphy and lettering. To us the aesthetics, spacing and composition of an inscription is important. Done correctly these elements have the power to reflect the unique qualities of the person being memorialised and so great care is taken over the design.
We pride ourselves on crafting premium headstones, gravestones, kerbed memorials and commemorative plaques, using the finest quality stone sourced from the UK and Europe, including Welsh slate, Yorkshire sandstone, and Dorset limestone. The memorials we create feature deeply V-cut lettering, a traditional technique that ensures a truly elegant and long-lasting finish.
