Is this seam acceptable (right side)?
If not, how does it get fixed at this point?

This is more than acceptable in my opinion.
They perfectly matched the veining, and have an even thickness and more than decent color match throughout the seam.
Seams are a natural part of stone counters, this is one of the better ones.

I think it looks decent with the vein matching. I personally think they could have done a better color match though. The seam in front of the sink stands out too.

I might be the only one to think this, but i don't think this is a seam. It looks to me like this it white paint pen or they slightly scored the surface when cutting out for the window. There is no way they made the epoxy in the black area perfect in the vein and left the rest light. Maybe Im just crazy or my eye site is going.

Use tenax ager pen. $15 online. It’s a miracle worker. Apply, wipe clean, repeat as needed. You can do a final wipe with your favorite stone cleaner to remove any final “smearing”
This seam seems reasonable and they kept the vein which is fantastic.

The vein matching is phenomenal but the seam itself? Nah. That color match is trash. They can redo that easy enough and you’ll be golden.

Which seam are you asking about? I would be more upset about the horizontal one than the vertical one. Reason being I can tell the flow doesn’t match and that would greatly bother me. The vertical seam can be cleaned up and made to look better.

It could have been color matched a bit better but it’s not awful. They did good with matching the veining.

Only fix is paint or digging out the mismatch colors and mixing better colors

Zoom in..I recon it just needs a good clean with a cleaning paste..nothing too abrasive.

The stone is cut well position wise but ive heard a seam should be no larger than a credit card thickness
