The profile requires more detailed fabrication than a basic eased or beveled edge. Ogee edges show the material thickness and can emphasize the color and pattern of stone or quartz. The curves collect more dust and residue than a simple straight edge and require additional cleaning. Highly active kitchens may prefer a simpler profile with fewer narrow projections.

Key considerations

  • edge durability
  • cleanability
  • appearance retention
  • S-shaped profile
  • formal design
  • custom fabrication
