The candlestick telephone is the most popular "antique-looking" telephone that springs into people's minds. This type of telephone was immortalised in films in Great Britain and the United States. They remained in common use in Britain from 1900 until the 1950s. Candlesticks are also referred to as Pedestal telephones or Tulip telephones because of the shape of the mouthpiece. The base of the candlestick telephone is 13 cm in diameter & it's 32-cm tall.
All candlesticks weigh 3kg maximum when packed.

All our telephones are fully stripped down, polished & rewired with hand platted cords in our workshop near Oxford , England. The phones have all original fittings inside and we try to keep all the original parts wherever possible. They come fitted with a standard British connection & all International customers ( USA, Europe, Asia Etc) will be provided with a RJ11 adapter, so the customer can use the phone on any analogue fixed telephone line.
