The History of Rock Engraving
By Bob Burows
Rock engraving is one of the earliest methods of
recording history, found in caves thousands of years
old. Carved with basic tools, engraved rocks and
headstones have been used for centuries as memorials to
commemorate the passing of loved ones. Engraved rocks
are often used to honor special occasions to be long
remembered.
carving rocks and stones are personalized to create a
lasting memorial for a loved one and custom carved rocks
are also ideal for pet memorials to remember your loving
pet.
Chinese symbols engraved in stone make peaceful settings
in Zen rock gardens or to accent your garden and
walkways. Personalized engraved rocks make perfect
enduring keepsakes and unique gifts to give to friends
and loved ones. Engraved rocks are treasured gifts
gathered from nature are given as gifts of love and
friendship during all kinds of holidays and special
events.
Both men and women love to receive engraved rocks
expressing loving sentiments on Valentine's Day or as
spontaneous loving messages that are given on a whim.
Receiving a love note on an engraved rock is always
cherished any time of the year.
Engraved stone memorials for loved ones are a time-honored
tribute to friends and family. Engraved stone memorials
have been used for hundreds of years to memorialize and
pay tribute to departed loved ones. Although we may be
inclined to write volumes on their special qualities,
choosing succinct memorial quotes for loved ones helps
us focus on our most precious thoughts and feelings and
are perfect as stone engravings.
Heartfelt quotes engraved in stone are thoughtful
memorials for the ones who have passed from this world
but will always remain in our hearts and minds.
Commemorative plaques are lasting stone memorials and
permanent reminders of those who will always be with us
in spirit. |
