Monuments: Pillow Style

Pillow style monuments are a low profile monument where the higher back slopes to the lower front. In most cases, the slope is either 8" in the back to 5" in the front or 6" in the back to 4" in the front. On a pillow style monument different areas can be polished, for example:

The areas that are polished on the stone dictate where the lettering or design can be placed.

Pillow style monuments are available in various sizes. The size is best determined when it is known whether one of more persons will be memorialized on the monument. In addition, they can be installed with or without a granite base.
