Companion Bronze Headstones and Grave Markers
Bronze combines copper, tin, and small amounts of other metals. Bronze has been prized for centuries for its preciousness, endurance, and ability to hold fine details and reflect light. Today, bronze is still a treasured material for creating memorials worldwide.
If you have been seeking an extraordinary way to remember your departed loved ones, our bronze companion headstone will be ideal for you and your family. A bronze companion headstone commemorates the deep, abiding love and companionship between two souls. With its brilliant color and exceptional ability to hold incredible detail, a double bronze headstone can capture the beauty and essence of those you wish to commemorate in glorious imagery.
Bronze requires minimal maintenance while remaining stunning for many years, withstanding natural deterioration, cracking, and discoloration. Some of our bronze headstones will be mounted to a granite base to ensure excellent ground-level stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Did you purchase the monument from a reputable maker using only the highest quality materials?
- Is the bronze companion headstone protected with a clear coat or a bronze-specific wax?
- Does the bronze marker come into contact with salt (Chloride)?
To maintain the appearance, ensure that you bring a soft bristle brush, several clean, lint-free, soft cloths, and some water when you visit. Brush away any debris you see, dampen the fabric, and wipe away dirt, then dry the headstone thoroughly. If needed, re-apply any protective bronze wax coating to create a barrier between the weather and the bronze.
Should the cemetery where your bronze companion headstone is allowed, you may place accessories such as flower vases, porcelain color photographs, headstone granite plaques, and emblems. Please check with your cemetery to see if they have any rules or guidelines about accessories.

- For an additional fee, we can offer a 5-day "Rush" delivery if it is needed sooner.
- Locate the grave markers on each side of the bronze companion headstone. Run a line of twine from the top of the left marker's base clear across to the top of the suitable marker's base. This will ensure the new memorial will align with other grave markers in that row.
- Using the twine as a guide, carefully position the memorial on the intended grave space. Carve out the outer edge of the base or the granite base with a sod cutter. Pick up and set the bronze companion headstone to the side.
- Remove the sod and dirt from inside the border you created with the sod cutter using a shovel.
- Measure and confirm the depth of the hole equals the depth of the bronze memorial base.
- A layer of pea gravel should be used for proper drainage.
- Then, carefully set the memorial within the newly dug space with assistance.
- Take a few steps back and double-check that the marker is level with the ground's contours.
- If it is not level, add more pea gravel to even it, preventing damage during the mowing season.
- Before leaving the gravesite, take some time to sweep away debris or dust and clean the marker.
