A beautiful 1 gang brass dolly switch with a hand forged Beeswax plate that will add a touch of contemporary style to any room in your home. Our dolly (toggle) switch plates are all made with a slimline brass or steel backplate that sits flush against the wall, with either a straight bevelled edge for a sleek, modern look to your home, or an uneven, hammered edge for a more rustic feel.
Each switch is 20amp, 2 way which means it can be used for switching lights from either one or two places such as from the top and bottom or your stairs. If you need to switch the light on from more than 2 positions (e.g. middle of the stairs) you will need an intermediate module which can be added for a small additional cost upon request. All
Jim Lawrence products are made using traditional metal working techniques and are hand finished to the very highest standards here at our Suffolk workshop.
Kindly note: Please ensure paint & plaster is completely dry before fitting brass switches and sockets to a wall. Our switches are designed to sit flush against the wall so any residual moisture might tarnish the finish. PRODUCT INFORMATION

FINISH
Beeswax: A traditional technique used since Tudor times. The metal is heated until it darkens and then dipped in natural beeswax which gives is a lovely soft black wrought iron effect which looks fabulous in any traditional or contemporary interior. As beeswax is a natural finish that reacts with the underlying metal during the forging process, it often has a subtle, slightly mottled patina with undertones of deep grey or ochre. To find out more about our finishes and how best to maintain them, please read our
Product Finish pages.
We do not recommend the beeswax finish for hanging up damp items and for use in bathrooms or outdoors, as it may rust in a humid environment. We feel that matt black the preferable option.
