Armoire HingesLarger Armoire Finial HInge. Available in Antique Brass, Black and Antique Silver. In South Africa, a finial hinge typically refers to a decorative hinge, often featuring a finial (a decorative top or end piece) on the hinge pin, adding an aesthetic touch to doors or cabinets. These hinges are functional, connecting two parts with a pivot point, but their finial design elevates their visual appeal.
