A square eased edge on a standard thickness quartz countertop creates a clean and contemporary look from the sides. The term "square eased" refers to the shape of the edge profile, which is straight and slightly chamfered or eased at the top and bottom corners. It does not have any additional decorative elements or curves, maintaining a simple, straight-line appearance.
When viewing the countertop from the sides, you will see the following features:
Straight Edge: The side edges of the countertop will be perfectly straight and perpendicular to the top surface. This creates a modern and sleek look, suitable for various kitchen and bathroom styles.
Eased Corners: At the top and bottom corners of the edge, you will notice a slight bevel or chamfer. This small angled cut makes the edge more comfortable to touch and helps prevent chipping or damage to the sharp edges.
Standard Thickness: The standard thickness for most quartz countertops is typically around 3/4 inch (approximately 2 centimeters) or 1 1/4 inches (approximately 3 centimeters). When viewing the countertop from the sides, you'll be able to see the thickness of the slab.
Consistent Color and Pattern: Quartz countertops are engineered stone surfaces, and they often have consistent color and pattern throughout the slab. From the sides, you'll see the continuation of the pattern and color that you see on the top surface.
Square eased edges are popular for their timeless and versatile appearance. They work well in both modern and traditional kitchen designs, providing a clean, understated look that complements various cabinetry styles and decorative elements. Additionally, the straight edges make them easy to clean and maintain, without any intricate grooves or curves that could collect dirt or debris.
