What edge did you use on the island and countertops?

14 years ago

I assume a square edge on the island but the countertops look a little more rounded on the ends?

awesome, thanks! So, the edge is actually called "square edge", correct? Just want to make sure I tell the granite guy the correct name.

You're so welcome! It's actually called an "eased edge." You can see more up close photos of this kind of edge here: http://www.google.com/search?q=eased+edge&hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=wu9YT9jcE6fr0gG-s7HiDw&ved=0CDgQsAQ&biw=1596&bih=935
I love this look for a more industrial, substantial, less fussy feel. Good luck!
