Vintage Candlestick Telephone Speakerpiece

Description

Vintage Candlestick Telephone Speaker Piece
Candlestick telephones, also known as “upright desk stands,” first gained popularity in the 1880s as the
telephone
became an important piece of technology for modern businesses. A standard candlestick phone included a base, stem, mouthpiece, and receiver.
The earliest candlesticks had wooden receivers and bases. Eventually, phones were made primarily from nickel-plated brass and Bakelite or hard rubber parts. Most turn-of-the-century candlestick phones came in simple, two-tone combinations of black and silver, like those made by Monarch, Sterling, Eureka, Manhattan, DeVeau, Sumter, Federal, Wonderphone, and
Western Electric
