What colour is this?! Sockets and switches

Redoing the living room, sort of an art deco vibe with probably dark blue walls and then jewel colour accents and touches of gold and marble . Already got this light fitting up and both wall sconces and side tables in white/grey marble with the same finish gold detail. Now I need to find sockets and switches the same finish (yes I am that obsessively matchy) and I just can’t find any! Not really sure what I should be searching for – it’s not exactly what comes up
under matte or satin gold but clearly it’s quite a common finish so maybe I’m just not looking for the right thing! Any ideas, or has anybody seen or got similar?

thanks!

Funny, that’s actually the closest that I had found but they’re so expensive! Might bite the bullet for the switch as it’s only one but there are also several sockets…

Ah yes, they're pricey! Try googling 'satin brass' finish instead of gold. I believe this is a more common description, but colours actually vary a lot, so some may actually look close to gold you're looking for.

Brushed gold?

Thanks all. I ordered the socket and switch in this only to find that the buttons on both are a different colour to the backplate 🤦🏽‍♀️ So annoying especially as the backplate is basically the right colour (but slightly different between the socket and switch)
