Wholesale Bevel & Pillow Granite Markers
Boda Stone supplies wholesale bevel and pillow-style granite markers for US and Canadian monument dealers, importers, and memorial trade buyers. Send the plan size, front and back heights, slope or crown profile, granite, finish map, lettering scope, quantity, and destination. The exact profile, cemetery acceptance, packing, and loading must be reviewed before price and production timing are confirmed.
Terminology note: “bevel” and “pillow” are related low-profile forms, but catalogs and cemeteries do not always use the names for identical profiles. The side elevation controls the order.
Bevel Height, Slope, Stone and Finish Review
A front image does not define a bevel marker. Use a dimensioned side elevation for the approved profile.
| Specification | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Plan size | Overall length and width, plus any top/bottom difference, end treatment or separate base. |
| Profile | Front height, back height, face slope or pillow crown, top ridge if applicable, and exposed height above finished grade. |
| Lettering area | Usable face, margins, viewing orientation, font, emblem, portrait and vase position on a scaled proof. |
| Granite | Black, grey, red or blue granite reviewed against current availability, sample requirement and acceptable natural variation. |
| Surface finish | Polished inscription face, ends and top transitions; sawn, steeled or rock-pitched surfaces identified on the finish map. |
| Foundation interface | Bottom condition, setting method, pin or dowel holes, foundation dimensions and installer requirements supplied by the buyer. |
| Packing | Sloped faces and high edges supported to avoid point loading; pieces separated, marked and listed by crate. |
| MOQ and timing | Confirmed after profile, quantities, total weight, personalization, approvals and loading feasibility are reviewed. |
Profile and Surface Controls
- • Front/back heights and slope checked from the approved side elevation
- • Lettering layout checked against the usable sloped face
- • Finish transitions and edge profiles checked by face
- • Personalized markers matched to proofs and piece marks
- • Sloped faces supported and protected for export packing
Local Rules and Order Limits
- • Confirm whether the cemetery calls the profile bevel, pillow or another local term
- • Supply maximum height, foundation, mowing-clearance and vase rules
- • Confirm local setting method and hardware
- • Approve natural color and pattern variation within the agreed range
- • Confirm that LCL or mixed loading is practical for the destination
Agree the Evidence Package Before Production
For repeatable dealer orders, define the records required at drawing approval instead of assuming every order uses the same inspection package.
Drawing to finished stone
Approve front, side and plan views, dimensions, finish callouts, artwork and piece marks.
Measurement and QC
Agree checks for dimensions, color lot, surface condition, carving, lettering and component fit.
Crates and loading
Confirm face protection, component separation, crate marks, packing list and loading plan.

Send a side elevation or profile sketch. A front-only image is not enough to price or manufacture the slope correctly.

Wholesale Bevel & Pillow Marker FAQ
- Are bevel markers and pillow markers the same product?
- They are related low-profile marker forms, but suppliers and cemeteries may use the terms differently. Confirm the front height, back height, slope or crown and side elevation instead of relying on the name alone.
- Which dimensions define a bevel marker?
- Provide length, width, front height, back height, face slope, end profile, exposed height, bottom or foundation interface and any hole locations.
- Can a bevel marker be supplied blank?
- Yes. Specify the usable lettering face, granite, finishes, profile, size and quantity. If it will be lettered locally, confirm that the selected stone and face finish suit the local process.
- How are sloped marker faces packed?
- The crate plan must support the marker without concentrating load on the high edge or polished face. Separation, orientation, piece marks and crate layout are reviewed for the actual dimensions and weight.
- Can bevel markers be mixed with flat, slant or upright monuments?
- A mixed order can be reviewed after all dimensions, quantities, weights, crate requirements and the destination are known. LCL or container feasibility cannot be confirmed from product names alone.
