Vintage and antique telephones are just one of our areas of expertise at Vintage Swank. Great pride is taken in the quality of the telephones we sell and restore.

We specialize in amazing vintage telephones from the 1920s-1970s. Many of our items are fully restored which involves a complete reconditioning of the inner workings and making every phone work on a current modular phone line. You can find great telephones from Western Electric, Kellogg, North Electric, Stromberg Carlson, Automatic Electric, ITT and others. We always have classics like the Princess, Ericofon, Sculptura, Genie and many amazing art deco bakelite and chrome telephones. All of our telephones are polished to bring out their original luster, as well as fully tested to ensure they will work when you get them home.

We do offer our full restoration and repair services to everyone. We will evaluate every phone individually and present the various options to help you get the most out of your vintage telephone. We offer powder coating on all metal body phones which is the most durable and long lasting finish possible, as well as restoration and polishing of all plastic and bakelite body phones. All of our repairs are guaranteed for one year. The warranty covers defects under normal operations and only includes the functional workings (the ability to place and receive calls) of the phone. Scratches, chips, and other cosmetic conditions are not covered. Our restoration policies are as follows:

• Repairs will be limited to older phones (pre-1970s).
• Functional repair includes the phones ability to make and receive calls.
• Cosmetic restoration costs will be on a case-by-case basis.
• You will always be given an estimate before repairs or restorations are begun
