Help with brackets/other support for quartz

13 years ago

We're having an arch on our peninsula to allow for seating. Peninsula is 85" long and 3" wide (of base cabinets). I'll call it a rainbow for help visualizing.

The end of the rainbow (against the wall) will stick out 7", then it will slowly arch out to 16", then back to 7" on the other side. Quartz is 3 cm thick with no plywood underneath.

What do we use to support the extended counter? How many do we need? Should I ask our fabricator to provide it? If we don't use plywood, how do the brackets attach to the quartz?

I'd like to find something that's hard to see - I don't really care about a beautiful decorative bracket. I REALLY don't want to have something that we hit all the time with our legs, as we'll be sitting at that counter.

FWIW, cabinets are white shaker and we plan to have a simple molding on the back side of the peninsula.
