Know what your bench quote covers

Prices are FOB Tianjin references. Stone and color affect the price: the same granite design in black is approximately 1.7–2.2 times the gray granite price. For delivery to a home, cemetery or park, ask for a DDP quote: it covers customs clearance, insured transport and delivery to the address, priced by destination and weight, but not unloading.

You arrange cemetery approval, forklift unloading, the foundation and local placement. Approximate weights are listed on each design card and can be provided for foundation planning.

Make the wording your own

Engraving, photos & a place for ashes

Plan a personalized memorial bench around the wording, stone color and setting. Send the inscription with your reference so the engraved memorial bench and its layout can be reviewed together.

Names, dates & verses

Names, dates and verses can be engraved on the backrest or seat edge. There is generally no fixed limit; most inscriptions run to a few dozen words. We send a digital layout for you to check spelling and dates before engraving.

Gold or white lettering & photos

Choose hand-cut lettering, sandblasting or a laser-engraved photo. Letter grooves can be filled with gold or white paint. Engraving and gold or white lettering are included without an additional charge.

Cremation compartments & curved seats

A concealed compartment can be made below the seat for an urn of ashes. The Cremation Memorial Bench card includes this feature; other designs are quoted to your requirements. Curved seats can be made to the required radius.

From your reference to the bench

How your memorial or garden bench is made

For a marble memorial bench, review the drawing, model and stone color before completion. We send photos or videos at each key stage.

  1. Send your site & wording

    Send a preferred design, site dimensions, inscription and any cemetery requirements.

  2. Approve the drawing & lettering

    Check the drawing and digital lettering layout; review the clay or 3D model and color before production proceeds.

  3. Carve or cast

    Stone benches are carved to the confirmed design; cast iron benches use the painted cast designs shown.

  4. Crate & ship

    Complex benches are crated in sections and simple designs in one piece, using fully enclosed wooden crates and foam lining with transport insurance.

  5. Place it locally

    Your local contractor prepares the foundation and places the bench, using our emailed drawings and structural adhesive, with steel pins where needed.

Compare the carving closely

Carved marble benches: wings, relief backs & lion legs

Look at the depth and symmetry of the armrest figures, backrest relief and lion legs when comparing a carved marble bench. These details should be considered alongside the overall length and the chosen garden setting.

Our marble benches are hand-carved in Quyang. Carved designs follow an approved drawing and clay or 3D model. Sectional benches are fixed locally with structural adhesive, with steel pins added where needed.

Plan approval and placement

Cemetery approval, delivery & placing a heavy stone bench

Cemeteries set their own size, material and placement rules. Ask for written approval before ordering, then send the requirements so we can adjust the dimensions of your stone memorial bench.

  • Get cemetery approval: obtain written approval for the proposed dimensions, stone and position before ordering.
  • Plan delivery & unloading: DDP delivery is to your address and excludes unloading; check the weight on the design card and arrange a forklift.
  • Prepare the foundation: your local contractor or monument company prepares it; we provide approximate weights for their planning.
  • Use our drawings: installation guidance and drawings are provided by email; we do not send an installation crew.

Natural marble can be used outdoors in cold regions. Tell us before ordering if winter temperatures at your site fall below −30°C (−22°F).

Questions before you order

Memorial bench & stone bench FAQs

How much does a granite memorial bench cost?

A gray granite backless memorial bench starts at US$1,800 for 120 cm (4 ft); the same size in black granite is US$3,000. Backrest designs are US$2,300–6,000 and cremation benches US$2,500–6,000. Carved marble benches are US$4,500–9,500. These are FOB Tianjin reference prices; DDP delivery is quoted separately.

Can you put a memorial bench in a cemetery?

Ask the cemetery for written approval before ordering. Most cemeteries have rules for the bench’s dimensions, permitted materials and position on the plot. Send those requirements with your preferred design. We can adjust the proposed size to the cemetery’s rules before the bench is made.

How much does it cost to place a memorial bench, and who installs it?

Local placement is arranged and priced by your contractor or monument company; we do not send installers. DDP delivery reaches your address but excludes unloading, which requires a forklift. You arrange the foundation and placement. We provide approximate weight information, installation drawings and guidance by email.

How do you personalize a memorial bench?

We engrave names, dates or verses on the backrest or seat edge, using hand-cut lettering or sandblasting; laser photos are also available. Letter grooves can be filled with gold or white paint. Engraving and gold or white lettering carry no additional charge. You check the digital layout before engraving.

Can a memorial bench hold cremation ashes?

Yes. A concealed compartment can be made beneath the seat to hold an urn for ashes. The Cremation Memorial Bench reference price of US$2,500–6,000 includes the compartment. Adding a compartment to another bench design is quoted to your requirements. Send your preferred reference so the design can be discussed.

What types of stone benches can you make?

We make backless, backrest, cremation and modern curved granite benches; carved marble benches with winged figures, relief backs or curved lion-leg ends; and stone table and bench sets. Cast iron benches are also available. Common stones include black or gray granite and white or beige marble; we recommend natural stone.

How do you clean a granite bench?

Use clean water, a soft brush and neutral soap or a neutral stone cleaner. A pressure washer can also be used. Remove moss, mineral deposits and bird droppings with a soft brush and water. Avoid vinegar, lemon juice, bleach, acidic cleaners and wire brushes.

How do shipping, payment and production work?

Payment is a 50% deposit and a 50% balance, with a US$1,000 minimum order. Production takes 15–65 working days, by design. To the United States, allow about 25 days at sea after sailing, 3–5 days for customs clearance and usually 7–15 days for inland delivery; to the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada, about 25–35 days to port plus 7–15 days inland. Benches travel in fully enclosed, foam-lined wooden crates with transport insurance. DDP can be quoted and excludes unloading. Inspect for damage before signing.
