A finial on a lamp is a decorative ornament or knob that is typically placed at the top of the lampshade or on the lamp base. It serves both a decorative and functional purpose by adding a finishing touch to the lamp's design and helping to secure the lampshade in place. The finial can also enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of the lamp and complement the style of the room it is placed in.
