Double Reproduction Bakelite Light Switch on Double Oak Pattress
Vintage Elegance with Modern Functionality
Add authentic period charm and superior craftsmanship to your home with the Bromleighs Double Bakelite Switch. Designed for those who value traditional aesthetics and high-quality finishes, this beautifully engineered double 2-way Bakelite light switch is mounted on a solid double oak pattress, offering a timeless look inspired by classic early- to mid-20th-century electrical fittings.
Each switch features a rich brown Bakelite finish, accurately replicating the original Bakelite material used in vintage switches. With a distinctive toggle mechanism and smooth tactile operation, these switches bring heritage design and practicality together in perfect harmony. Each Bakelite toggle switch measures 52mm in diameter, offering a compact yet elegant profile that suits any room.
The double 2-way configuration allows you to control two individual light circuits from two different locations – ideal for larger rooms, stairways, or entryways where flexibility and functionality are essential.
Premium Oak Pattress with Five Beautiful Finish Options
The double square oak pattress, measuring 90mm x 170mm, is crafted from durable, high-quality oak and is available in five distinct finishes to suit both traditional and modern interiors:
-
Natural Oak – Ready for painting to match your unique style
-
Light Oak – Clean and minimal, ideal for contemporary spaces
-
Medium Oak – Warm, classic finish for versatile appeal
-
Dark Oak – A rich tone for traditional and heritage settings
-
Antique Mahogany – Deep, elegant finish with vintage character
Every pattress is finished to enhance the natural grain of the wood, ensuring that no two are exactly alike. The result is a striking visual statement that combines classic British craftsmanship with timeless style.

Whether you’re upgrading existing fittings or starting from scratch, installation is straightforward:
-
For flush wall box installations, a double adaptor kit (BAKD) is required (sold separately).

Comprehensive installation instructions are included with every switch, making setup simple and stress-free for both electricians and experienced DIYers.
