What seams?  I don't see any.  I don't know how they did that.

Not tiles.  The material looks seamless including all the way around the two 
45s we have for the big bevel at the front edge.

Take her to their showroom.  I think she will be impressed.  Sue originally 
wanted granite look (we have a wheeled island from Fleet Farm [really!] with a 
slab of granite on top), and the granitetranformations looked good, but when 
she saw the sea-shells she had to have them.

I didn't care.  She doesn't get to design my shop, so she can do what she wants 
with her kitchen.
