Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Crosley Black Candlestick Phone (CR64)
Customer Review: A functional work of art
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very well-made replica of a 1920's candlestick phone. You could buy refurbished antique version of this phone, but the prices I have seen online have started at $250.
This phone is not cheaply made by any means. It is fairly heavy, like I would expect an original one would be, and has old-fashioned cloth covered cords, which are generous in length. The mouthpiece tilts up and down for your favorite angle, and the ring sounds authentically bell-like. The audio is crisp and clear. The matte-black finish combined with the classic lines make this indeed a functional work of art. Recommended!
Description of Crosley Black Candlestick Phone (CR64)
The Candlestick phone, also known as the żUpright' initially became popular during the early 1900s before the introduction of the one-piece handset. The first Candlestick phones were introduced when the magneto system was in use, which meant that the phone was connected to a large wooden box called a "subset" containing a battery, bell, and crank. But oh have we come a long way. From its bell-shaped mouthpiece to its cloth covered receiver cord, this telephone replica recalls a vintage instrument from the 1900's. But a closer look reveals some modern technology including a decorative dial that functions as a push button for tone/pulse operation as well as a center medallion that serves as a redial button. This modern day version of the Candlestick Phone would have surely made Alexander Graham Bell proud.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
