Monuments in the form of angels on CNC
Today we will talk about the tradition of depicting an angel on a tombstone. What meaning do people put into this image? In what form does the angel usually appear? And on our company’s website you can download 3d stl or 3d max models for making monuments in the form of angels and little angels of any shape and size on CNC machines.
About monuments and tombstones:
A monument or tombstone serves the main purpose - to preserve the eternal memory of a person, to demonstrate one’s love and recognition.
Most often, monuments in funeral service workshops are made of stone (marble, granite, bronze), which can withstand any bad weather, fluctuations in humidity and air temperature, and exposure to precipitation. An excellent way to do this is to manufacture on a computer numerical control (CNC) machine. The machine repeats with high precision an image of any complexity on the material, creating a beautiful and highly artistic work, a holistic and harmonious sculpture.
At the same time, it ensures fast turnaround times, excellent quality, impeccability, and guaranteed decent results.
All that is needed for the machine to operate is the material, cutters, and a 3D model of the future product (which can be purchased or ordered on our website).
Symbolism of the monument in the form of an angel:
Sculptures in the form of an angel in cemeteries and graves are found in different religions and cultures.
Symbolically, the angel represents the messenger of the Lord. For baptized people, an angel is also a guardian, a helper, a support in life, protecting them from evil. It is not surprising that an angel is a common symbol of the soul's companion after a person's death.
However, this symbol can have different meanings.
For some, an angel is a hope of comfort for those who mourn. For others, it is an image of a creature capable of protecting the deceased, protecting him, saying a prayer for his soul.
For others, the angel symbolizes eternal love. And for the fourth (especially if the angel is depicted in the form of a baby and is located at the baby’s grave) - the purity and innocence of the soul of the deceased.
In addition, a monument in the form of an angel symbolizes pure thoughts, piety, humility, and faith.
Is it possible to install an image of an angel on graves?
Orthodoxy allows the use of the image of an angel in the manufacture of monuments and tombstones.
It is worth keeping in mind that in some cemeteries it is not always and not always permissible to install monuments; sometimes additional approval from the administration may be required.
Types of 3D models:
We present the following models with which you can make monuments and tombstones:
- A sitting angel or a standing angel,
- Bust of an angel or full-length angel,
- Orthodox saints, for example, Archangel Michael, Archangel Gabriel,
- An angel praying, or an angel crying (covering his face with his hands, wiping away tears),

Many models can be found in this section (follow the link). Note! The section presents not only models for monuments, but also other types of angels (for example, decor in the Baroque style, in the era of which frivolous figurines of cupids and cupids were popular).
In addition to a completely three-dimensional sculpture, an angel can be a three-dimensional bas-relief protruding on the plane of a gravestone. Such models are also available on our website.
If the model you need is not in the catalog, then we are ready to make it according to your sketches, photos, descriptions, or individual technical specifications.
Stages of working with us when making a custom model:
- You send us a sketch or photo of the desired 3D model, we inform you of the time and cost of the work, receive an advance payment, create a 3D relief,
- We make adjustments to achieve the required portrait resemblance, adjustments are made free of charge,
- We give the model to you and receive the rest of the payment.
The advantages of our models in the manufacture of monuments:
High quality, detailed drawing, convenient format, huge selection, the ability to create exclusive models to order.
