Working with CBD Glass for your glass countertop needs means access to flourishes that are beyond the norm. For instance, we offer a service called edge finishes that can take any extraordinary countertop and make it even better.
You can select edge finishes for your kitchen or bathroom glass counters as well as raised bars and glass bars.
With so many types of edge finishes for your counters, how can you possibly choose? This post will delve into the different types, offering pointers to help you make a confident decision.
The Types of Countertop Edge Finishes CBD Glass Offers
Without further ado, let’s delve into the various types of edge finishes for glass countertops and their features.
Flat Polished Edge
The first option at your disposal is known as the flat polished edge. CBD Glass offers two styles of this and every other edge finish on the menu. The first is called Clear and the second is Satin.
The Clear style is self-explanatory. This is translucent so you can see all the edge detailing in fantastic detail. Satin offers an opaque edge that you can’t gaze into the same way. However, it’s still alluring.
The Flat Polished Edge delivers a subtle but visually delightful finish that’s timeless and stylish.
Textured Edge
Next, there’s the Textured Edge. As this name would make you think, this edge finish has a lot of visual dimension and appeal. The Clear version boasts a lot of richness and texture on the sides, making it ideal to add to a textured finish featured over the rest of your counter space.
The Satin version provides more subtly, looking almost like frozen water under a lake. It has a cool yet contemporary vibe that would look especially at home in an upscale kitchen or nice bathroom.
Fire Polished Edge
The Fire Polished Edge finish is the only one in which we provide three varieties rather than the standard two.
First, there’s the Clear edition of the Fire Polished Edge. This has a texture almost like brushstrokes, and the clarity of the glass allows you to gaze within the corners and be amazed at their level of detail.
The Satin style of the Fire Polished Edge minimizes details in favor of opaqueness. It’s a simple but still stylish edge finish that is sure to turn heads in your home whenever you have family and friends over.
Finally, there’s the ¾-inch version of the Fire Polished Edge, which is only available in the Clear style. Customers still love it!
Brushed Polished Edge
The fourth edge finish available at CBD Glass is the ever-stylish Brushed Polished Edge. The Clear version is elegant and nicely accompanies many of our counter glass textures. It has arguably the most subtle effect of the four and looks divine in kitchens and bathrooms alike.
You might also choose the Satin version of the Brushed Polish Edge finish. This one looks like slowly melting ice, giving this finish an entirely different appeal.
How to Choose the Right Edge Finish for Your Glass Counter
Considering the high quality of all the edge finishes available for glass kitchen and bathroom countertops from CBD Glass, naturally, you’ll wonder which you should choose. While ultimately, the answer will come down to your project goals and design tastes, here are some pointers that will help you decide:
- Kitchen or bathroom: Certain edge finish styles look better for the bathroom versus the kitchen, at least if you embrace traditional designs. That said, this is your house, so you can ultimately do as you wish.
- The level of texture you want visible: The Satin finish tends to obscure a lot of texture, both in the edge finish and the countertops if you add texturing there. Sometimes, that’s just what a customer wants. However, if you wish for all the textures you selected to stand out, you should go with the Clear finish.
- How much character you want: Our Textured Edges provide a lot of character, whereas the Brushed Polished Edge and Fire Polished Edge are utterly sleek. They’re like different kinds of personalities, both good, just different.
Our team at CBD Glass is happy to assist you in meeting your countertop design goals, whether for the kitchen, bathroom, or even both. If you’re ready to jump into the budgeting stage with your project, we can provide you with a quote once you have project specs and measurements ready to go.
Rest assured that no matter which edge finish you select for your custom glass counters, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind piece that will make your home even more appealing.
