ENGRAVED STONE
Engraved panels may serve as hands-on exhibits, interpretive signage and enhance development programs through donor recognition. Engraved stone provides not only a story but a sense of wonder and permanence as one touches the cut edges of solid rock. A black and white historic photograph engraved in granite is displayed with an elegance and durability only nature can provide. Nature has many beautiful substrates for engraving, each making a deep connection to the surrounding environment. As an interpretive message, a monument of recognition or a memorial to persons, events or nature, engraved stone becomes a work of art.
