Kiln-fired print
Pigment fused into the structure of the glass; some designs use UV print protected with PVB film.

Three mounting methods
Bonded to the stone slab, fixed on mounting pins, or seated in a recess of the headstone.
Memorial plaque made from tempered glass
A memorial plaque made from tempered glass offers an elegant and lasting way to honour the memory of a loved one. The portrait, surrounded by striking peonies in shades of lavender and white against a muted grey background, gives the composition a subtle, refined character, suited both to a large format plaque mounted onto a stone base and to a version applied directly onto the headstone. The plaque can also be produced in a smaller form, as a plate or photograph for the monument, serving as one of the decorative elements of the grave.
Made from tempered glass, the plaque remains resistant to rain, frost and sunlight, allowing the likeness of a loved one to keep its original brightness of colour for many years.
How ordering a memorial plaque works
Ordering a glass memorial plaque is simple and straightforward. You can choose any design you like and then ask the stonemason working on the headstone to include it in the headstone design and in its quotation.
Your stonemason will advise you on the right size of plaque, the orientation of the panel, the method of fixing, and where the personal details should go — on the glass plaque itself, or done traditionally on the stone panel.
Based on the agreed dimensions and the stonemason's input we will prepare an individual quotation, which will be included in the total cost of the headstone.
All you need to do is:
choose the design you want,
pass it to your stonemason, and
email us 3–5 good-quality photographs of the person who has died.
We will prepare the plaque design from them.
Once the design work is finished we send you a visualisation for approval; after you approve it we start production and ship the plaque to the stonemason you specify.
How do I choose a photograph for a memorial plaque?
Please send photographs that are sharp and taken from a short distance. Pictures showing the person from the waist up work best.
We recommend sending several photographs, so that we can choose the most suitable one. If there are problems with the quality of the photographs, we can retouch or reconstruct them digitally, keeping the portrait natural and dignified.

Photo restoration
for headstones and funeral ceremonies
The service is for funeral homes, stonemasons and private individuals who need a photograph improved quickly — in time to have it printed by a local photographer for the ceremony, or prepared for use on a headstone.
We also restore photographs in very poor condition — we remove paper texture, grain and yellowing, bring back sharpness in the face and hair, and crop the frame to the format you choose. We hand over the print-ready file as a link you download to your computer.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a plaque take to make?
The full lead time for a glass memorial plaque is usually 3 to 6 weeks, and depends on the time needed for the design, production and delivery.
Do the personal details have to be on the plaque?
No. All elements — the details of the person who has died, dates or religious symbols — are agreed individually for each design. They can go on the glass plaque, or directly on the headstone — engraved, or in applied metal lettering.
What size can I choose?
The smallest available format is 20 × 30 cm. The largest can be 150 × 200 cm or more, although the final limit depends on the quality of the photographs we receive for the design.
What type of printing do you use?
All our work is produced with ceramic (kiln-fired) printing: the pigment is fired at high temperature and permanently fused into the structure of the glass. This makes the image highly resistant to weather, UV radiation and mechanical damage.
We print only on ultra-white tempered glass, which gives high clarity and neutral colour rendering.
How is the plaque fixed to the headstone?
The method of fixing depends on the headstone design. The plaque can be:
bonded with a suitable adhesive,
mechanically fixed with dowel pins,
set into horizontal or vertical plinths.
Whatever the fixing method, use materials that absorb the stresses caused by low temperatures — flexible tapes and adhesives, or suitable gaskets at the dowel pins and plinths.
Can you make a plaque in an irregular shape?
Yes. From a technical drawing you supply we can make a plaque in an irregular shape, for example with an arch or a rounded side, so that it fits the shape of the headstone.
How thick is the glass of the plaque?
We make the plaques from tempered glass 8 mm thick. It is rigid and safe to mount on a headstone, and at the same time does not overload the slab.Do you need a plaque in a different size?
We make every plaque to the dimensions agreed with the stonemason, who will advise on the size, the orientation of the slab and the mounting method. From a technical drawing we can also make an irregular shape — with an arch or a rounded side. We prepare the quotation individually and it forms part of the total cost of the headstone.
We also prepare quotes for non-standard work by e-mail: biuro@deseomemorials.com
