The Antique Bronze Range from Forbes and Lomax

• Many of the early light switches were made in Antique Bronze and the finish became very fashionable in the Art Deco period.
• This finish complements both traditional and modern designs and work particularly well on wood panelling and other unusual surroundings.
• The Antique Bronze range is durable and will stand the test of time. Original Antique Bronze switch plates can be seen in old buildings today still looking great a hundred years on. 
• Sockets are supplied with black inserts as standard to complement the dark finish of the plate.
