Countertop Edges
Details, details, details
- Flat polish, a simple and classic edge profile, is most often seen in contemporary design.
- A bevel finish features a subtle angle cut that is typically 45 degrees but can be customized to enhance the room’s design elements.
- A full bullnose edge is a classic design with a rounded finish that gives a soft touch and makes the edge appear thinner, while a half bullnose finish gives a thicker appearance to the edge.
- For sleeker looks in traditional kitchens, a quarter round edge’s top has a slight radius.

Edge Upgrades
They should be used to enhance the overall design of the space. For instance, if square, straight, clean lines are predominating in a space, then square, straight edges should be used on your stonework. The edges available for this clean look are 2-cm, 4-cm or 6-cm flat polish, 2-cm, 4-cm or 6-cm bevel, or any size of mitred apron. Square edges and corners can pose problems in a high traffic area and should be softened by slightly rounding the corners. When you’re working with a space filled with curves and soft corners, it’s best to use rounded edges to tie things together – like demi bullnose, full bullnose or a radius edge. These edges can be applied on straight edges as well as curves. Rounded edges tend to soften the stone and make it more functional in high traffic areas, but will not detract from the design.
