Nabresina Headstones, Gravestones & Memorials

The Elegance of Nabresina Headstones

Discover our distinguished collection of Nabresina headstones, expertly crafted from this premium Italian limestone. Quarried from the renowned Karst region near Trieste, each memorial combines natural beauty with exceptional durability, perfect for creating lasting tributes throughout the UK.

Responsibly sourced and imported from Northern Italy, Nabresina is a premium limestone that often comes with a speckling of shells and fossils that we think gives the stone real character. With its off-white, or pale greyish colour, a Nabresina headstone offers a striking, elegant appearance, well suited to the British climate.

Thanks to its smooth, finely-grained texture, Nabresina cuts beautifully and, in the hands of the right stonemason, is ideal for sharp, intricate inscriptions and pictorial carvings which is why it’s one of our favourites to work with.

While Nabresina does age, to maintain its original look, a Nabresina headstone can be easily cleaned by washing it with a sponge or soft brush once or twice a year. Like all whitish stones, if left it will weather, but does so gracefully and because it is less porous, at a slower rate than other paler stones such as Portland limestone or Marble.

Given how hard and dense this stone is, it’s one of the most durable headstone options available, often preferred by churches and historic cemeteries through-out the UK, it is also perfect for cover slabs or kerb set memorials.

Our dedicated stonemason has been creating Nabresina memorials and Nabresina plaques for decades, so you can be certain that no matter what design you choose, the end result will be stunning. Our Nabresina stone is always responsibly sourced too, meaning it is of the highest quality with a low carbon footprint.
