Granite Cemetery Vases – Are usually made from solid granite and shaped in many designs. The most common designs are tapered square granite vases and turned granite vases. The tapered square granite cemetery vases are made using large granite saws which fashion the granite vases in to rectangular shapes with a tapered bottom. Turned granite vases are made from a block of granite which is placed on a stone lathe and turned to give it a more traditional vase shape. Granite vases are common as an accessory to an upright monument and are usually purchased in pairs.
