Rod Finials

Q: Do all finials fit all curtain rods?

No, not all finials fit all curtain rods. You’ll need to measure the outside diameter of your curtain rod and the inside diameter of the finial fitting to determine if they will match.

Q: Are curtain finials interchangeable?

As long as the attachment to the curtain rod remains the same, any design of finial can be interchanged.

Curtain rod finials are decorative ends to curtain rods and rails. These decorative additions allow you to decorate what is otherwise a bland, utilitarian curtain rod. To provide you with the widest range of options to customise your curtain rod ends, ArchiPro has worked with trusted suppliers across Australia to bring together multiple brands, colours, materials and shapes of finial for you to consider.

Styles of rod finials

Simple caps

The most basic type of rod finial is a cap that fits on the end of, or plugs into, curtain rail ends. These tidy up the otherwise industrial-looking curtain rod ends.

Rounded knobs

Rounded knobs are one of the most common types of curtain finials, having been in use for centuries. These can be made out of wood, metal, or plastic, with each adding a different accent to the room.

Decorative endings

For those that prefer a bit more style, rod finials are available in a range of different shapes including twisted wrought iron baskets, hoops, suns, rosettes and just about anything else you can imagine.

The advantages of high-quality rod finials

Rod finials are a mostly decorative item, designed to improve the look of your room. If you choose lower quality finials, it’s more likely that imperfections such as moulding lines, scrapes, uneven finishes and dents will be present. If you’re adding an element to your room to improve the overall aesthetic, you want that element to look good and fit in with the surrounding decor.

How to choose the rod finials that are right for you

Curtain pole finials need to harmonise with both the curtain rod, the curtains and the overall look of the room. If your curtains are closely patterned, it’s likely that having complicated finials will make the overall design seem cluttered. You probably want to choose something simple and bold, such as turned knob finials.

However, if your room is looking fairly plain, curtain rod finials offer a chance to add some real flair. Larger, more complicated brass finials can compliment existing brass fittings or furniture, covering otherwise bare and uninteresting real estate.

Overall, choosing which curtain finials best suit your room is a matter of personal taste. It’s best to look at a wide range of options and compare them.

Are finials necessary?

In some cases, finials are necessary to prevent ringed or track curtains from slipping off of the curtain rail end. However, in most cases, the bracket attaching the rod to the wall prevents this, and so finials are optional.
