Lost Art. Mid Century Phones and Phone Tables.

As technology advances we see iconic pieces lost to new innovation.  Such is true with telephones. I can't tell you how many people I know that no longer have a home phone, myself included.   Well, technically I don't.  I DO have old phones in my house, because I love the way old phones look, but they aren't plugged in to a land line.

Mine are just decor, but aren't they great?

this one is a repro but I'm always looking for the real thing....

Vintage Phones.

One of my favorite vintage things are old rotary phones. I love everything about them - the cool large shapes, the big chunky handles, the cords and most of all, the rotary dials! It takes you right back in time turning a number and watching it spin back. I always hope to come across a 1940's- 50's black classic but it hasn't happened yet. I did however come across a brown retro phone that is available in my shop (pictured above).

Here are some of my favorites from other stores in Etsy....
