How long will the engraving last?
We want your engraved rock to be a lasting testament, and we take its longevity seriously. After the engraving process, a high-quality lithichrome stone paint is applied up to 12 thin coats. It is designed to stand the test of time. We've seen firsthand that even after 25 years, our engraved stones still look "pretty darn good"! We've refined our stone selection and painting process over the years, you can trust that we're providing you with the best possible rock for a lasting impression.
