Shown is integrally colored concrete with brass letters placed in the surface.Custom mold were used to imprint a Stegosaurus and two shell fossils. The concrete was then ground down so the letters were level with the surface of the concrete. The grinding was performed with a retro-plate machine that grinds the concrete to a polished finish.
