A matching urn-form flower vase stands on the base slab at each side of her, and the whole group sits on one thick rectangular slab.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSeated Angel Between Two Urn Vases\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two urns have to be a pair and they are turned rather than carved, which is a different discipline from the figure and is done by a different hand. Both are worked from one block so the grain runs the same way through each, and they are matched against one another before either is finished. The angel is cut afterwards, so the urns set the height of the group rather than the reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA memorial with its own vases wants a plot wide enough that the urns are not crowded by planting, so a full grave or a family plot rather than a lawn marker. Real flowers go in the urns and dead ones come out, so keep the approach to both sides clear. Burial authorities differ on loose vases and on what may stand on a base slab, so check theirs before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUsing the Vases and Keeping the Plot Clear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTen weeks. The two urns are turned and matched first, because a pair that does not match cannot be corrected once the figure is cut to their height. The plinth follows and the angel is fitted to it last. The plinth faces arrive blank and take a name and dates in the lettering you settle on, or stay bare for a mason near you.
