Candlestick Phones | As Antique As It Gets

Narrowing Down Your Style

Because there are so many different styles of antique telephones on the market today, a good place to start is by targeting a style that best suits your individual personality. The older, more antique style telephones seem to draw more of a crowd than any other style. One of the most popular phones in that category is the antique candlestick phone.

The Candlestick Telephone

From the 1890's all the way to the early 1900's, the candlestick telephone was quite common. During the early 1900's, before the introduction of the one-piece handset telephone, antique candlestick phones.

The very first candlestick phones were connected to big ol' wooden boxes called subsets. A subset was made up of a bell, a crank, and a battery. How far we've come since then! Most of our phones today are small enough to fall into a sink drain.

Are Antique Candlestick Phones Popular Today?

Candlestick telephones were one of the most popular designs ever to be produced and reproduced in telephone history. That's probably why they're so popular today. Antique candlestick phones give a sophisticated look to any room. They're just down right classy. Now, if you're looking for the genuine version of the candlestick phone, you've come to the right place.
