Retro Scandiphone adds touch of elegance to your home

retro-phone.jpgThe Scandiphone you see here will definitely be a conversation starter in your home for whoever drops by, since these are extremely rare considering how we’ve all moved on to the digital age. Then again, how many of us still have landlines?

Back in the late 50s/early 60s this upright Swedish phone was all the rage amongst style-conscious chatterboxes. And now it’s back in the curvaceous shape of this fully-functioning push-button replica. Simply plug it into a standard phone socket and Sven’s your uncle! Talking about one-piece design, the landmark ScandiPhone is just begging to be grabbed and yelled into. Failing that, simply admire its sexy lines and cast your mind back to an era when Grace Kelly and Cary Grant ruled the world. With their memory-jogging geek-chic styling, Retro Telephones laugh in the fascias of modern slimline phones. They also look seriously cool in any scenario, in a dial-’i'-for-irony kind of way. Best of all you can enjoy a good old chinwag without sullying your surfaces with some flimsy modern pretender. It’s good to talk; it’s even better doing it on a Retro Telephone.

Get your retro-flavored Scandiphone for £39.95.

I have a landline :) Not by choice, however - I need it for the ADSL (and the occasional call from my grandma). Fortunately, I have a normal looking telephone. I wouldn’t put this orange monstrosity in my living room. This is one thing from the 60s I’m glad dissapeared.
