Slant marker headstone designs have stood the test of time as one of the most classic and dignified ways to honor a loved one’s memory. Unlike flat markers or upright monuments, slant headstones offer a unique angle—literally and symbolically. Their sloped face allows inscriptions to be easily read from a standing position, while the design itself lends a feeling of strength, permanence, and quiet grace.

At The Eternal Monuments, we understand that choosing a memorial is more than just selecting a piece of stone—it’s about capturing a story, preserving a legacy, and creating a space where loved ones can pause, reflect, and remember. Our slant marker headstones are crafted with both tradition and personalization in mind. Whether you prefer a simple design with a family name or a fully customized layout with symbols, portraits, or inscriptions, our team works with each family closely to ensure every detail is handled with care.

These markers are often chosen for single or companion plots and can be installed with or without a base, depending on cemetery guidelines and personal preference. Available in a range of durable materials such as granite and marble, slant markers offer long-lasting beauty and resilience against the elements.

Our guide delves into the design process, material options, engraving techniques, and installation tips to help families make confident, informed decisions during a time that can feel overwhelming. We also provide visual examples to illustrate how different finishes, fonts, and layout choices can reflect personal values, religious beliefs, or cultural heritage.

The Eternal Monuments is proud to offer compassionate service, expert craftsmanship, and high-quality materials to families across the country. We believe that a headstone should do more than mark a grave—it should tell a story and stand as a lasting tribute for generations to come.
