High quality bronze markers and bronze memorials are normally manufactured using a process called casting. Bronze is an alloy made from copper and other metals. This alloy is much harder than plain copper. The experienced memorial designers at Kornick & Berliner Monument Company work with families during the design phase by explaing the various bronze grave marker options. Bronze memorial plaques are produced using a sand mold. Molten bronze is poured into the mold. The bronze markers then go through a process called chasing which removes imperfections. Brown paint is often applied but the top edges of lettering and design features retain the original bronze color which produces a contrasting effect. Flush bronze plaques are often attached to a granite base with brass fasteners. Epitaphs are frequently added to bronze markers and bronze plaques. Once the bronze marker has been completed, it is then delivered to a cemetery and installed.
