On the other hand, the Antique Bronze range from Forbes and Lomax has a rich warm hue to the plates, which makes this range attracting in both contemporary and traditional interiors. These switches/sockets/dimmers also work particularly well on wood paneling and other unusual surroundings. The plates all have a slightly variable finish – this adds to the distinctive look of the range. Many of the early light switches were made in Antique Bronze and so the finish became very fashionable in the Art Deco period. The Forbes&Lomax Antique Bronze finish is durable and standing to the test of time. Nowadays, original Antique Bronze switch plates can be seen in old buildings, which even today look great(and will continue to look classy for many years onwards). All the socket outlets are available and are supplied with black inserts to complement the dark finish of the plates.
