Statues, Sculptures, Figures & Busts

Statues and other sculptures are a beautiful way to honor your loved one and customize their grave site. Generally incorporated into the grave marker itself, cemetery statues, sculptures, figures, and busts help your loved one’s final resting place stand out and help show others their character. Some of the most common types of cemetery statues are religious symbols. For example, Jewish grave sites may feature statuary of the draped urn, the eternal flame, the tree of life, kohanim hands, and other sculptures to help symbolize your loved one’s faith and devotion. Some other common cemetery statues include flowers, hearts, and other symbols that help show the person’s character and help memorialize their life. 

Cemetery statues are custom-made to help you create an enduring monument to your loved one. Many cemeteries will have guidelines around statues and figures, such as size and style, so it’s important to check with the cemetery before starting the design process. In addition, as you think about your design, remember to consider how it will fit in with the surrounding monuments and landscape. 

At Gaitz Memorials, we take time to listen to your design ideas and then work with you to ensure your cemetery statues, sculptures, figures, and busts meet your expectations. We understand how important it is for the memorial statue to accurately and beautifully represent your loved one’s final resting place. 

Granite cemetery statues are carved or sandblasted to create three dimensional images. We also offer bronze statues, which are cast from liquid bronze. These sculptures and images can be a three dimensional image on flat surfaces like the headstone face or can stand completely on their own as fully three dimensional shapes, depending on your preferences. Our skilled craftsmen offer years of experience creating beautiful images to help you create statuary that will be an enduring tribute to your loved one’s life.
