Eternal Markers is a signature brand born from a unique collaboration between two of the nation's most respected names in the memorial industry: Brown Memorials and Gaulden Monuments.

We were created to solve a simple problem: how to offer world-class, award-winning memorial designs to families across the country, backed by the reliability of American manufacturing. By uniting the design heritage of one historic studio with the production power of another, Eternal Markers serves as a singular destination for families who refuse to compromise on quality.

The Designers: Brown Memorials

The artistic vision behind the Eternal Markers brand comes from the studio of Brown Memorials. Founded in 1908 in Florence, SC, Brown Memorials is a fifth-generation heritage firm recognized as one of the premier monument designers in North America.

Leading our design philosophy is Bran Oswalt, an award-winning memorialist whose work has garnered over 40 North American design awards. Bran’s philosophy of "simple elegance" ensures that every marker in this collection is balanced, legible, and artistically significant. Historically, designs of this caliber were available only to a select few due to the low-volume, boutique nature of the Brown studio.

The Craftsmen: Gaulden Monuments

To bring this exclusive collection to a wider audience, the Eternal Markers brand is powered by the manufacturing expertise of Gaulden Monuments.

Based in Rock Hill, SC, Gaulden Monuments is a third-generation industry leader known for its precision technology, major production capabilities, and strict quality control. While Brown Memorials provides the soul of the design, Gaulden provides the muscle of the craft. This close friendship and strategic alliance allow us to produce these intricate designs at a scale and speed that a boutique studio could never achieve alone.
