Robin Memorial Plaque in Natural Slate
Many people believe that robins appear when loved ones are near, and a robin in the garden can feel like a small visit from someone we miss. This robin memorial plaque captures that feeling with a watercolour robin, a name, dates and a verse, UV printed in full colour on natural slate.
No photo is needed, so it suits a loved one, a parent, a grandparent or a pet. Slate is suitable for outdoor use, so it can be placed in the garden or at a graveside, or kept indoors on a shelf.
Designed, printed and dispatched in the UK by our small family team, each slate is made to order with exactly the wording you choose.
The Design
A watercolour robin perches on a leafy branch on the left. On the right, the name is printed in a large flowing script, with the verse and dates beneath:
When robins sing upon the tree, they bring your love back home to me. A gentle sign that you are near, still deeply loved, still always dear.

Q: Do I need to send a photo?
A: No. This design does not include a photo. Just add the name and dates.
