Antique Sockets & Switches
Antique sockets and switches add a sense of warmth, character, and vintage charm to a wide range of interior decoration styles especially if you have an older or period property - Edwardian, Victorian or Georgian, or rooms finished in a period style.
Complementing furniture, fabrics and accessories from different eras, antique sockets and switches create a cohesive look bringing together different design elements in the room.
In later styles like mid century modern, antique finish sockets and switches fit in as a soft warm complement to the colours of the time.
Our antique socket and switch finishes include -
Aged
The Aged plate is finished with a distressed styling on the face plate and this gives the Aged range a unique look ideal for old style interiors. These Aged plates are given a dark bronzed polish over a dull brass plate then rubbed down to give a well used and authentic look.
The result of this is that every plate will look different – every one is unique and slightly different from the other.
Antique Brass, Antique Copper & Antique Pewter
These Antique finishes have a subtle streaked coloured glaze applied over a brass plate which is then rubbed down to give it the appearance of an antique socket or switch. As this is an individual plate process, every socket and switch is slightly different to stay true to the antique look.
To further enhance the appearance of the plate look for matching antiqued metal rocker switches to complete the look.
Bronze Antique
Bronze Antique is a subtle orange/brown finish that is consistent over the entire plate. It has the appearance of a brown plate with a golden bronze tinge to give this range a warm rich finish. This is our most popular Bronze finish.
Old Brass
Old Brass has a rustic worn effect throughout with a distressed golden sheen to it which gives this plate the appearance of a time aged plate. The finish is consistent over the entire plate which is finished with a lacquer to protect the finish and to ensure the finish stays consistent over the lifetime of the plate and maintenance free.
Old Bronze
Old Bronze is finished in a dark green and greyed brown bronze which gives this plate a duller more aged heritage look as you would expect to see on aged bronze items.
Old Copper & Old Nickel
Old Copper and Old Nickel sockets and switches have a speckled worn look with slight flecks of grey running through the finish, giving the appearance of naturally aging uniformly across the socket or switch.
