The edges are available in three different finishes which are as follows:
Machine (Cut/Sawn Edges)
Such tiles or slabs have fine edges which is a result of using machines while cutting. The stones with such edges are most commonly used types of edges. Using machine is faster and it simplifies the work of the fitter as these slabs or tiles fit perfectly.
Hand Chiseled Edges
The edges that are smoothened by the professional workers are called the Hand Chiseled Edges. Hand chiseled edges are also called hand dressed edges. They are most suitable for exterior walls and pavements. The stones are first cut into different sizes and then, they are worked upon to achieve the smoothness. This edge finish is very much similar to natural surface finish and hand dressed edges are a good combination with natural surface finish.
Chamfered Edges
Chamfered edges are achieved by first sawing and then polishing the stone. Most commonly found in kitchen, the chamfered edge slabs also look classic on exterior walls or any part of interior and on table tops. Chamfering removes the shine and whiteness of sawn edges.
