An empty or unfinished grave counts -3. A finished grave counts its headstone plus its fence, minus the red skulls of the body inside, and never more than that body's white skulls: a Marble Cross II and Marble Fence II (+14) on a corpse with 3 white skulls and no red skulls count 3. The graveyard quality page covers what the total pays.
Headstones
Crafted at a workbench, then placed on a grave. The number is what the piece adds to its grave, up to the cap set by the body's skulls.

Graveyard questions
Which decoration adds the most quality?
Per object, Columbarium II (+20) is the largest single step. The fence and road upgrades add a flat amount to the whole graveyard once each (+10, +20 and +10).
Why did a better headstone not raise the grave?
The grave was already at its cap. A grave's value is its headstone plus fence minus the body's red skulls, and it can never exceed the body's white skulls. Past that point a better headstone adds nothing.
Do the graveyard areas add quality?
No. Grave, walkway, columbarium and mixed areas cost nothing and add a 12 x 12 space to build in; only what is placed inside counts.
Where are graves themselves made?
An Empty Grave is placed from the graveyard blueprint desk at no cost. The headstone and the fence are crafted items: wooden ones at the Woodworking Workbench, stone and marble ones at the Stonemason's Workbench.
