Granite Colors

Granite color is one of the key factors that influences the appearance, durability, and cost of a granite monument or memorial. Granite is quarried both domestically and internationally, with certain colors only found in specific regions of the world. Domestic granite is sourced within the United States, while other memorial granite colors come from select overseas quarries where natural stone variations occur.

At Midwest Memorials, we help families in Minnesota and Wisconsin compare granite monument colors to find the best balance of beauty, longevity, and value for their memorial.

  • Granite is available in a wide range of natural colors, patterns, and finishes. Some colors offer higher contrast for engraving, while others create a softer, more subtle appearance. Availability can change over time, and certain colors may be more limited depending on quarry production. We will help you select a granite color that complements your design, budget, and engraving style while maintaining long-term beauty and durability.

  • Granite is quarried from many regions around the world, including right here in the Midwest such as Minnesota and the Dakotas and across the United States. While some assume imported granite is always more expensive, that is not necessarily the case.

  • Pricing is influenced by factors such as availability, transportation, and production—not simply the country of origin. We source quality granite from both domestic and international quarries and will help you compare options to find the best balance of color, quality, and value.

Engraving Fonts

There are many font styles available for monuments and memorial engraving. Certain styles perform better depending on the color, finish, and design of the monument. Our team will guide you in selecting an engraving style that complements the memorial beautifully while ensuring clarity, durability, and long-lasting quality over time.
