Introduce authentic period charm into your home with our Rounded Reproduction Bakelite Light Switch, a premium addition to our heritage lighting collection. Inspired by early 20th-century electrical fittings, this beautifully crafted switch brings together classic styling and modern compliance, making it ideal for traditional homes, tasteful restorations and interiors that celebrate timeless design.

Expertly moulded in durable Bakelite, the switch replicates the distinctive smooth finish and tactile feel of original vintage toggles from the 1920s. Its newly designed fully rounded profile offers a softer, more understated aesthetic compared to stepped variations – perfect for customers seeking an elegant, minimalist period look. Compact yet striking, the switch features a 52mm diameter and showcases the rich, deep tones of authentic brown Bakelite.

Mounted on a solid oak pattress, this piece combines natural materials with classic engineering. The oak backplate is available in five handcrafted finishes:

• Natural
• Light
• Medium
• Dark
• Antique Mahogany

These finishes allow you to perfectly match the switch to your décor, from rustic cottages to refined heritage interiors. Every pattress emphasises the natural grain of the wood, adding warmth, depth and a genuinely traditional character to any space.

Designed as a single 2-way switch, it allows you to operate one lighting circuit from two different switches, making it ideally suited for hallways, staircases, large rooms or any area requiring flexible control. Whether you’re upgrading an existing installation or completing a full-period restoration, this rounded Bakelite switch provides both authenticity and practicality.

Installation has been made as straightforward as possible. For surface-mounted fitting, no additional box or adaptor is required. For flush installations, simply add our single adaptor kit (BAK), sold separately. Every switch comes complete with full installation notes, ensuring a smooth and secure setup for both professional electricians and experienced DIY users.

All switches in the Bakelite Collection meet the latest British Standards (BS 60669-1) and are rated at 6 amps, guaranteeing safe operation on standard lighting circuits. Manufactured with high-quality materials and precision engineering, these switches not only capture the aesthetic of the past but also offer long-lasting reliability for the modern home.
