Pencil-Polished-Edge-Glass-1

Pencil Polished

Best for shelving and exposed edges where a rounded profile is preferred, pencil polished finishes create a smooth, rounded edge protecting against potential injuries associated with sharper edges and corners. A standard pencil polished edge will have a glossy or highly polished appearance.

Pencil-Ground-Edge-Glass

Pencil Satin

With a similar rounded profile as pencil polish, its matte or satin-type sheen make pencil satin the perfect choice when a frosted edge is preferred.

Flat-Polished-Edge-Glass

Flat Polished

Unlike pencil polish which is rounded, a flat polished edge features a flat surface surrounded by a top and bottom small chamfer eliminating sharp edges. A standard flat polished edge will appear glossy and highly polished.

A flat satin edge is a smooth matte or satin finish. It will appear frosted, not highly polished.

Seam-Glass

Seamed

Also known as cut and swipe, this process removes sharp edges with a sanding belt. Seamed edges are commonly used when all edge surfaces are captured, such as in a wood or metal channel.

Miter-Edge-Glass

Miter

Offered at various angles up to 60 degrees, a mitered edge is typically used to create a corner by marrying two glass edges together. This type of mitered edge is most common in UV-bonded cases, or to create a uniquel aesthetic when working with thicker glass.
