A Touch of Stone

Welcome to A Touch of Stone, the heart of Hawke's Bay, where craftsmanship meets tradition since 2007. We are a family-owned Monumental Masonry studio, dedicated to creating and restoring granite and marble artwork that honors life's significant moments. Our story began when our founder, a fourth-generation mason, recognized the need for a more personalized approach to monumental masonry in our community. With a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for the artistry involved in this ancient craft, he set out to create something truly special. Today, we are proud to have expanded our family business, employing local artists who share our passion for creating lasting memories through beautiful granite and marble sculptures, headstones, and memorials. Every piece we create is a testament to the power of enduring love, respect, and remembrance. Our master craftsmen pour their heart and soul into each piece, skillfully hand-lettering inscriptions with an artisan's touch that will stand the test of time. Whether you're seeking a traditional headstone or a unique, customized memorial, our team is committed to working closely with you to bring your vision to life. In addition to our memorial work, we also specialize in the restoration and repair of existing monuments. Our skilled craftsmen carefully restore each piece to its original beauty, ensuring that these cherished memories remain vibrant for generations to come. As members of this community, we believe in giving back and nurturing the relationships we have built over the years. From local schools to charitable organizations, A Touch of Stone is committed to being an active and engaged part of Hawke's Bay. When you choose us, you not only receive exceptional service but also support a small business that values its community deeply. Whether you're saying goodbye to a loved one or celebrating a milestone, allow A Touch of Stone to help capture your memories in stone. Our family is here to serve yours – now and for years to come.
