Engraved script

A flowing, connected lettering style used on headstones for names and short epitaphs. Script is more expensive to sandblast than block lettering because each curve requires its own stencil cut. Reserve script for personal lines (a beloved nickname, a brief epitaph) rather than dates or full inscriptions.
