Inspired by the timeless dolly switch, this pared back toggle is a contemporary take on a classic design. These switches not only provide character to a property but also give a really satisfying click.
All hardware is machined from solid brass which gives a superb level of detail and weight.
Antique brass is what’s called a ‘living’ finish because it reacts to the air and moisture around it, causing it to darken (especially in the areas you touch most). We’ve given it a head start by ageing it by hand, so it has that antique look right out the box.
The clear backplate is made from 3mm transparent polycarbonate, which gives the illusion of the switch being built into the wall and is very discrete. We supply the switch with a paper template to either paint with your chosen wall colour or to use as a template for wallpaper. An installation tool is provided to mount the front plate without any visible marks.
Two switch modules are available. Normal two-way, and a Retractive switch option. Retractive switches should be used when on the same circuit as Corston dimmers. They can also be used for momentary applications like door bell switches.

switches are added to the middle of the circuit. Our intermediate switches can be found here.
