Clients who visit Fergus Wessel’s Stone Workshop often comment on the beauty and simplicity of his gravestones. They say they did not realise that hand carved gravestones could be so different from sandblasted memorials. Each gravestone is cut with the quiet chisel and mallet into stone or slate, and some gravestones may be embellished with a relief carving. Some clients favour a traditional gravestone, while others choose to add a motif such as a gilded star. Combining his skills as a letter cutter and stone mason, the possibilities to create a fitting and individual memorial are endless. www.stoneletters.com
