Bronze plaques get more beautiful with age

Memorial plaques make a beautiful way to preserve the memory of a loved one, and can be placed in almost any setting, which makes them one of the most popular forms of memorial we offer. Granite is the classic material for creating memorials, but we also have a range of stunning bronze plaques which are ideal for paying tribute and commemorating the life of a person you loved.

Bronze is an extremely strong and durable alloy which consists mostly of copper. It offers many benefits which make it a great material for use in memorials. One of the biggest advantages is the fact that it is highly resistant to corrosion, so it’s perfect for placing in outdoor settings where it will be subjected to changing weather conditions over long periods of time. It’s also known for being a ductile metal, which means it will not crack or become brittle, but will stand the test of time.

Of course, bronze is also widely admired simply because of the way it looks, alongside its practical qualities. It stands out from many other materials because it actually improves with age; as the years pass by, bronze develops an amazing patina which gives it a charm and character all of its own. There are many good reasons why it is the most popular material for use in metal sculptures, and with its combination of strength and beauty, bronze memorial plaques make stunning tributes.

We offer a range of different memorial plaques in various designs, shapes and styles to suit many different needs. They can be secured onto a headstone or memorial bench to provide the perfect finishing touch, or they can be affixed onto poles and displayed near memorial trees, in gardens or in any other location. Our plaques can also be inscribed with the images and text of your choosing so you can ensure they are truly personal and special.
