Yes this phone is real and yes it does work...Instead of hyping the iphone this piece takes a look to the past for inspiration. We might consider hooking up our regular old landline just so this could sit on our desk.

The Dreyfuss 500 takes you back to the days of the rotary dial, without having to wait for the dial. Although we admit, nostaligically, we kinda wish the dial did work. This version has all the features of a modern-day phone, but all the styling of the 1930s to 1950s.

The Lobby Desk Phone captures the essence of the classic 1930’s European style telephone. This beauty was originally cast in heavy duty metal and then later reconditioned in a lightweight thermoplastic giving it a more stylish approach and curved design. As seen in the world’s finest hotel lobbies.
