Forbes and Lomax is a high quality flat plate metal/plastic finish for switches, sockets, and dimmers manufacturer, based in UK. Some of the finishes and plates it produces are: The Invisible Plate, the Unlacquered Brass, the Antique Bronze, the Nickel Silver, the Stainless Steel, the Painted Socket, etc. The Unlacquered Brass range has brass plates that are designed to mellow with age if left unpolished.
