At Stonehaven, we understand that creating a memorial is one of the most important decisions you’ll make for someone you love.
It’s more than stone — it’s a lasting tribute, a place of reflection, and a way to honour a life.
We’re here to guide you through that process with care, experience, and understanding.
Every memorial we create is unique. Whether you prefer something traditional or completely custom,
we work alongside you to design a tribute that reflects your loved one’s personality, values, and story.
With a wide range of granite colours and finishes available, the possibilities are almost endless
— and we’re here to help bring your ideas to life.
Have something in mind? Share your idea with us and we’ll help shape it into a design.
We believe this process should feel straightforward and supportive—not overwhelming.
No pressure. Just honest advice and experienced support.
Stonehaven was founded in 2005 by Graeme and Chris Gedye, with a commitment to providing meaningful, high-quality memorials for families in Gisborne and beyond.
Graeme brings over 30 years of experience in the monumental industry, and together with Chris, has built a business grounded in trust, craftsmanship, and genuine care for the families they serve.
Over the years, we’ve formed strong relationships within our community. Much of our work comes through word-of-mouth recommendations—something we’re incredibly proud of.
Today, we continue to serve not only the Gisborne region, but families across New Zealand and internationally.
Our team—Graeme Gedye, Chris Gedye, Paul Straatman, and BJ Seymour—are dedicated to helping you create something truly meaningful.
We take the time to listen, understand your vision, and guide you through each step with patience and respect.
When choosing a memorial, it’s your choice—your ideas, your vision. We’re here to support and guide you, ensuring the final result feels right for you and your family.
Because every life deserves to be remembered in a way that is personal and lasting.
Whether you’re ready to begin or simply exploring your options, we’re here to help.
