Description
A single 13A socket with a screwless front plate, finished in champagne gold and switched by a chrome rocker. The plate clips over its own frame, so nothing but flat metallic colour faces the room and there are no screw heads to line up. The rocker sits alongside the socket in a long, narrow format, and the chrome insert reads as a deliberate contrast to the gold rather than an attempt to match it.
It is the kind of power point we reach for in rooms where the wall finish has already been given some thought: a bedroom with brass fittings, a sitting room in a deep colour, a hallway with warm timber. Use it where a lamp or a charger is all that is ever plugged in, beside a bed, behind a reading chair or under a console table. The switch means the appliance can be left in place and turned off at the wall. It is meant for indoor rooms running on a household supply, so keep it out of bathroom zones and away from anywhere it might be splashed.
The plate is moulded polycarbonate with the champagne gold applied as its outer finish. Fingerprints show less on this warmer tone than on polished chrome, and what does mark it lifts with a dry cloth; for anything greasier, a cloth barely damp with water, then dry it off. Cream cleaners, bathroom sprays and anything with solvent in it will dull the finish, so keep them away from the plate. It carries a ten year warranty. Champagne gold sits well with unlacquered brass and aged bronze elsewhere in the room, and we would carry the same finish across the switches on the same wall so the sockets do not read as an afterthought.

Frequently Asked
What size is the front plate?
The plate is 88mm square, with a 25mm depth measurement. It is a compact plate for a single position, so it suits tight runs of wall beside furniture or joinery.
Is the socket switched?
Yes. It is a 13A switched socket with a rocker switch, so an appliance can stay plugged in and be turned off at the wall.
What is it made from?
The plate is polycarbonate moulding in a champagne gold finish, with a chrome rocker as the contrasting insert. It weighs 0.105kg.
Can it go in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated IP20 and made for indoor use only on a domestic supply, so dry rooms rather than bathrooms, utility splash areas or anywhere outside.
How long is the warranty?
It carries a ten year warranty from the manufacturer.
Is champagne gold the same as polished brass?
No. It is a softer, paler warm metallic, less yellow than polished brass and much warmer than chrome, which is why the chrome rocker shows as a clear contrast.
