Push Button switches & dimmers ?


In my house (p.s. party at my house in the near future) there are some old push button switches and some regular toggle switches that I’m replacing with push button switches. In the kitchen I’m putting two rows of can’s, a fan over the table space and some pendants over the cabinets – but I’d like dimmer’s on the cans and maybe the pendants – the cans will be a 3-way. Do you know of any product that would look correct (per se) with a push button switch as a dimmer?

I was going to use the old style push buttons as well to match the originals in my house but after finding what the cost was I decided newer toggles would be just fine.
