Nine plaques, your figures struck into the face. The only choice left is what they are made of.
Sand-cast and darker in tone. Grows a green patina over decades, so it reads as monument rather than signage.
The standard marker. Deep-engraved and ink-filled, bright enough to catch low sun and read at a glance from the path.
Clear cast panel with the engraving on the reverse face. The lightest and least costly option, best for indoor and temporary routes.
