There are generally two styles of raised headstones: bevels and slants.  A bevel marker has a 2” pitch, or bevel, from front to back, making it easier to find in the cemetery than a lawn level headstone.  A slant marker is usually 12 – 16 inches tall and can be ordered with or without a granite base.  Slant markers come in a variety of interesting shapes and finishes allowing for a more personal and creative memorial tribute.
