Marble Headstones: Prices and Unique Features 

 

How Much Does a Marble Headstone Cost? 

Marble is undoubtedly one of the more expensive materials available. Most quarries are located in the Mediterranean region. The appearance of marble can vary depending on its exact composition, with colors ranging from black-streaked, red, blue, and green to the well-known white marble. Another unique feature of marble is its softness compared to other common materials, allowing for intricate shapes and fine details to be carved. However, these same properties also mean that marble is far from low-maintenance. For this reason, we recommend other materials for crafting memorials, such as limestone, granite, basalt, or sandstone. The costs for a marble headstone can vary, typically ranging from 30 to 250 Euros per linear meter.

What Determines the Price of a Marble Tombstone?

The costs of a marble tombstone can vary depending on the type of marble. One of the most popular and actually less expensive types is Carrara marble. It has a lighter veining and has been used for sculptures since ancient times.

Of course, the price of a marble tombstone is also influenced by its size, design, and inscription.

The Price Difference - Marble or Granite

The prices of granite and marble can vary significantly. Granite is not necessarily the more expensive material, and its processing is not always more costly due to its harder nature. Prices in both cases depend on the type or origin, processing, and diameter.

Therefore, you should consider other criteria besides price when deciding between granite and marble - such as composition, maintenance, and location. For instance, since granite is more weather-resistant than marble, it is better suited for natural cemeteries.
