1、 Design inspiration and cultural relevance
Cultural Origins: Referring to the Russian Orthodox culture of "the cross symbolizes the protection of faith", "the rose symbolizes love and immortality", and "the heart represents emotional connection", the three are fused to create a dual heart shape, conveying the funeral symbolism of "dual eternity of faith and emotion";
Emotional expression: The dual heart design is suitable for scenes such as couple burial and family commemoration, combining religious symbols with emotional symbols to accurately touch the religious beliefs and emotional needs of Russian and Eastern European families.
2、 Material and craftsmanship details
Material selection:
Main body/pedestal: made of black granite, with a hard and durable texture, suitable for outdoor environments in Russia. The deep color tone highlights the three-dimensional sense of silver carving, carrying the weight of commemoration;
Carving decoration: using silver granite (or metal inlay technology), presenting cross, rose, heart shaped contours, symbolizing faith, love, and emotional connection;
Process presentation:
Carving technique: Combining manual carving with mechanical assistance, the religious symbols of the cross, the petal texture of the rose, and the contour lines of the heart are finely carved by craftsmen, emphasizing the balance between the standardization of religious symbols and the aesthetic beauty of artistic forms;
Stone splicing/inlaying: Mechanical cutting ensures the geometric accuracy of the dual core stele, while manual polishing optimizes the connection surface between carving and stele. If metal inlaying technology is used, the fit between metal and stone is strictly controlled to achieve the perfect integration of religious symbols and emotional shapes;
Surface treatment: The black monument body is matte polished to highlight a stable texture; The silver carving is finely polished to present a metallic luster (or stone luster), enhancing the sense of religious solemnity and emotional romance.
