You’ve chosen the stone type and color and can’t wait to have your new stone countertops installed. There is just one final decision to make, but it can make all the difference to the final look of your home renovation project.
The subtle yet impactful design details of your stone countertop edge and stone finish can significantly enhance the overall appeal of your space.
The edge profile of your stone countertop is like the frame of a masterpiece, completing and at times even defining the overall look you are wanting to achieve. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most popular edge profiles and their unique characteristics.
1. Straight Edge
With sharp, straight, and flat lines that showcase the thickness of your stone, the straight edge is a clean, simple, and timeless design. If your kitchen or bathroom is more on the contemporary side, this edge brings a bold, modern accent to your stone countertop.
2. Eased Edge
The slightly rounded corners of the eased edge make them a softer update to the straight edge. This edge is quite versatile and fits well with both traditional and modern styles.
3. Beveled Edge
This slanted style countertop edge is done as varying angles less than 90 degrees. The bevel can show off the veins and colors of marbles and granites beautifully, creating subtle visual interest. This edge style is perfect for anyone wanting to bring in a touch of sophistication to their space.
4. Bullnose Edge
This smoothly rounded edge brings in a soft and elegant look while also a much safer option for family homes.
5. Half Bullnose Edge
This is one of the most popular countertop edge styles combining the rounded top of the bullnose with a straight bottom.
6. Ogee Edge
If you are looking for an elaborate and decorative edge for your stone countertops, the ogee is all about the curves and intricate details. Its concave s-curve is an excellent way to infuse a sense of luxury and classic beauty into home renovation.
Think of the finish of your stone countertop as the brushstroke that gives the masterpiece that is your home renovation its final touch. These popular finishes each bring their own distinct signature to your countertops.
