Aluminium?

Natural or artificial?

It is artificial.

And it isn`t aluminium coz it costs too much. And scrap metal thieves would immediately steal it.

I would advise you to go back and check Alien`s comment on it. It is a big hint.

Acrylic? Although I wouldn't say it's something special.

Yes, it is ordinary plastic, not even acrylic. Economical class, sort of.

Yes, it is special in the Polish cemetery coz you can wander through the acres of gravestones and you won`t see a plastic one. :):):)

When I saw it, like Alien, it reminded me of a plastic bath, but I didn't think anyone would be that much of a cheapskate as to have one. Having said that, not everyone would necessarily have the money for granite/marble headstones. Quite expensive I would think.

80% gravestones are good quality granite or marble. The rest are terazzo - about 15% or earth ones - 4%. Plastic makes less than 1%.
