The H-hinge has a rich history rooted in traditional craftsmanship. Originating in the colonial era, these hinges were commonly used in cabinetry and furniture due to their functional design and decorative appeal.

Today, this style remains popular among woodworkers and artisans seeking to replicate historical designs or add a rustic touch to modern creations.
