That could be highly dangerous. Some of those metal parts may not be earthed e.g. the knob. It probably also contains a PCB, and PCBs are toxic. I personally would not have it in my house, although only a competent person with suitable safety equipment should remove it. Do not take unnecessary risks with chrome-finished electrical accessories!
BTW if you find out what it is please let me know
