Natural Stone Edge Finishes
The stone edge finish is the final surface applied to the face of dimension stone during fabrication. Below are examples.
Rocked Edge
Rocked edges are achieved by hand-trimming the edge of natural stone stairs or fireplace hearths. This example is thermal bluestone with a rocked edge.

Thermal Edge
A thermal edge is a flat sawn edge that is then heated to create a flat, matte non-skid surface.
