Tumbled Riverstone Pet Memorial
Our tumbled river stones are unique pet memorials that won't make your yard look like a cemetery. Each stone has been millions of years in the making, before being hand picked by us from our quarry.
Being a natural product the shape, size and colour varies, with each stone being as unique and individual as your beloved pet.
The stones are available in two sizes and both sizes have the option of a small receptacle for the placement of a token portion of ashes (approx. 50cc).
The large size is approximately 15cm across and has room to include a graphic, your pet's name and date/s along the bottom. The extra-large size is greater than 20cm across and being a bigger stone has room to include a graphic, your pet's name, a single line of inscription and date/s.
The price includes a standard length of inscription that is deeply engraved into the stone and the lettering is finished in black.
After placing your order our artwork department will email you an artwork proof for you to approve prior to us scheduling the engraving. This way you get to see exactly what your engraving will look like and check everything is in order.
If you have any special requests (such as extra length inscription) add this to the "Special Instructions" box on the check-out page.
An engraved tumbled river stone from Talking Stones makes a truly special pet memorial that you will cherish and love forever.
Just imagine how lovely one of our beautiful engraved tumbled river stones will look in that special place in your garden. They are a truly unique and special memorial that we promise you will love and cherish forever.
Mock-ups are for illustrative purposes only. A detailed artwork proof will be emailed to you for approval before production begins.

Customer Reviews
It is an absolute pleasure to highly recommend ‘Talking Stones’. Their excellent customer service and exemplary product quality is 100% second to none. AMAZING craftsmanship BEAUTIFUL hand engraved river stones are just the best. Such unique and remarkable memorials that never cease to bring me deep inner peace. The team at Talking Stones have always gone over and above to meet my custom requests. This includes matching colours with previously purchased tumble stone memorial stones. I feel it needs to be emphasized that the quality is truly remarkable. I’ve purchased a number of pet memorials for all my departed darlings, and also a person memorial for my son.
It must be at least 12 years since I purchased original stones and both the tumble stones, and the black engraving remains as perfect as the day it was received (quality is truly outstanding). I’ve also had a number of affirmation pebbles and stones custom-made for me -BEAUTIFUL!
Talking Stones customer care exceeds all expectations (and I don’t mind adding that I have very high standards of expectation, lol). The compassion, empathy and genuine care provided by the team is actually unbelievable (to me). Great advice and true understanding has always been demonstrated, when asking questions about new orders, or asking for custom requests.
Their prices are very reasonable in consideration of the products received. I have no doubt they will last a lifetime. The cherished memories these pieces behold and represent to me is endearing. My memorial rose bushes are a place to reflect, grieve and remember the love. This privilege is something money cannot buy. I am SO grateful to everybody at TalkingStones for the service they provide. And for the complimentary gifts I receive with every order, along with the hand wrapping and personal messages of sympathy and care with every piece… takes my breath away; very very thoughtful.
Thank you for delivering beautiful, individual memorials for me that have provided a place to grieve, during such difficult times… difficult yet SO comforting and meaningful.
100% A1 top quality. Strongly recommend.
We purchased this beautiful hand engraved river stone for our beloved Tilly! It’s gorgeous and a beautiful reminder of how special she was to us all! The service, understanding and delivery from Talking Stones was perfect. Thank you xx
Talking stones have made a beautiful headstone for our much loved golden girl, Maggie. They have been great to deal with and delivered what they said, when they said. Thank you so much guys this will last forever, along with our memories.
We absolutely love Talking Stone. We have a stone in memory of all our beautiful pets that have passed over the past 12 years. Each stone is individually shaped and even our oldest stones look as good as the recent one we purchased. I have also purchased stones for family members that have lost pets.
The Talking Stones group have been responsive to my wishes for my two Labradors, Winnie and Sandy. They each have a place in the garden and a great addition to the memories of my beloved dogs!
