Black and brass is the signature pairing of considered interiors: a matte black plate with a solid brass toggle, dimmer knob, or outlet detail. The contrast is graphic at a glance and warm up close — and because both elements are solid metal, the finish holds at the distance a light switch actually lives: under your hand.

Specify a black and brass light switch where the wall color is deep or the cabinetry is dark, and let the brass detail pick up lighting, plumbing, or hardware elsewhere in the room. Everything here coordinates with the Matte Black and Satin Brass collections for whole-home consistency.
