Wood Edge Details

Every squared-edge top can be finished with any of our five standard edge profiles at no extra charge, from a crisp eased square to a classic roman ogee. Pick the profile in step 04 of the Builder — and if you have something else in mind, our shop can shape virtually any custom profile on request.

Our five standard profiles

Every squared-edge top includes your choice of these five profiles at no extra charge — pick one in the Builder.

Eased
A square edge with the sharp corners softened just enough to feel smooth.
Chamfered
A clean 45° bevel that softens the top edge.
Quarter Inch Round
A gentle ¼″ roundover, subtle and hand-friendly.
Cove & Beed
A concave cove paired with a rounded bead.
Roman Ogee
A classic S-curve that reads as traditional detail.

Custom profiles

These are just examples — our shop can shape virtually any edge you can draw, from an ornate French Baroque to a profile matched to your existing cabinetry. Contact us about the profile you want.

Classical Ogee
A layered ogee with more depth and shadow line.
Double Round
Rounded on both the top and bottom edges.
French Baroque
An ornate, multi-step profile for a statement edge.
Questions

Wood Edge Profile FAQ

Common questions about our hardwood edge profiles: how they’re priced, which to choose, and how they’re finished.

How much do edge profiles cost?
Every squared-edge top includes your choice of any of our five standard edge profiles at no extra charge. The edge is shaped and finished as part of the build and priced the same no matter which of the five you choose. Custom profiles — an ornate French Baroque, a double round, or a shape matched to your cabinetry — are quoted individually; contact us with what you have in mind.
Which edge profile is best for a kitchen countertop?
For everyday kitchens, a softly eased or roundover edge is the most practical: it’s comfortable to lean against, easy to wipe down, and more resistant to chipping at the corner. A crisp square edge suits modern and commercial spaces, while ogee and bullnose profiles read more traditional.
Can I get a live edge instead of a shaped profile?
Yes. Edge profiles apply to straight, squared tops. If you’d prefer the natural contour of the tree, choose Live Edge in the Builder instead. A live-edge top keeps the organic outer edge on one or both long sides rather than a milled profile.
What’s the difference between an eased and a bullnose edge?
An eased edge is a square edge with the sharp top and bottom corners lightly softened, subtle and modern. A bullnose rolls the entire edge into a full rounded profile, which reads softer and more traditional and is very comfortable to the touch.
Do edge profiles affect durability or cleaning?
Not meaningfully. Every edge is sanded smooth and sealed with the same 100% VOC-free finish as the surface, so all profiles clean the same way. Rounded profiles are slightly more chip-resistant at the corner than a sharp square edge.
Can you match an existing edge profile in my home?
Often, yes. If you’re matching cabinetry or an existing counter, send a photo or the profile name through our Contact page, or request a quote, and we’ll confirm we can replicate it before you order.
Where do I choose my edge profile?
In step 04 (Edge & finish) of the Builder. Each profile shows a swatch so you can see the shape; pick one and it’s applied to your top at no additional cost.
Do you take on custom or one-off projects?
Yes. Beyond the online builder, we take on custom sizes, oversized pieces, matched commercial runs, and bespoke solid-hardwood millwork. Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll quote it by hand, usually within one business day. Start a custom project ›
