Kenya Marble Quarries LTD was established in 1923, and is arguably the finest & most skilled headstone and monument manufacturer in Kenya. We have been assisting families, in Kenya create permanent markers for loved ones for over 94 years. Our staff were initially trained by skilled Italian and British colonial stone masons with hand tools.
It is our goal to give helpful information about selecting a meaningful grave marker or headstone as a celebration of life. We work until we are assured that you are satisfied with the selection you have made for your loved one.
Marble is an ideal material for headstones. It is pure in color and creates a stunning time capsule to remember remembered than the person the headstone marker is for.
If I want a special design, can you do it?
Yes, we typically adapt all our designs to customers individual requirements. We understand that at a time of remembrance it is important to create a headstone that is representative of family wishes. We are happy to completely custom manufacturer any design to your requirements if needed.
Our computer aided inscription design machinery enables us to carefully show a clear visual scaled printed representation of the inscription and design of the headstone prior to manufacture. This makes visualizing the final headstone much easier. We are also accustomed to emailing design concepts to loved ones that may live overseas or be unable to visit our Nairobi factory.
I’ve never bought a Marble Headstone before; where do I begin?
The first step is decide on the inscription needed. The design choice will be determined based upon the inscription requirements, as certain designs can accommodate more inscription whilst others have a much smaller area that can be inscribed.
If you need any assistance with what to write on the headstone, please feel free to contact us or visit our Nairobi factory showroom. We have a large number of samples available to view as well as pictures of hundreds of completed orders that can be used for ideas.
We are able to draw a printed computer aided design draft to your requirements as you wait. This is the easiest way to visualize the layout.
How Long does it take to order a Marble headstone?
We typically ask for a lead time of 4 to 6 weeks, and most customers have ample time to spare.
If you have a ceremony sooner than this and can not wait, then we are happy to priorities your order and offer you an express service within a few days from order.
If you are rushed for time, it is prudent to prepare the necessary inscription as soon as possible, because our manufacturing can only begin after we receive design approval to begin.
