Bronze is the most durable and resilient metal available for usage as a grave marker. It is an alloy that has tin and copper, with some lead and zinc traces. This mixture creates a long-lasting and solid marker that is easy to clean and preserve for years to come.
There are numerous instances of bronze markers that have endured for decades, and this is the major reason for their popularity to grow. Combined with concrete or granite stone, these grave markers are the perfect way to remember and honour someone.
