Engraved plaques can be fixed to any of the wooden crosses. They can span the width of the cross or be a smaller plaque centrally placed.

The black / dark bronze coloured anodised aluminium is very popular. It has the advantage of being low maintenance with small text and fine images easily engraved.

Other alternatives are acrylic laminate (available in several colour ways) or top quality engravers brass. The main disadvantage with brass is the fact that it must be regularly polished to look its best.
