This is the Forbes and Lomax X2GPO, a two gang push ON/OFF rotary switch invisible plate and brass knob, manufactured by Forbes and Lomax.

Please note: by default, the insert is unlacquered brass; it is shiny/polished brass, which after time becomes aged brass (there is a patina), which can be polished to become shiny again. The insert is unlacquered, designed to mellow with age if left unpolished to match older brass fittings in the home.

It looks like a rotary dimmer but it has only the function of switching ON or OFF (ideal for matching with others rotary dimmers from Forbes and Lomax).
