About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This vintage industrial bell telephone originates from SNCF train stations. It is a piece of historical communication equipment, designed to withstand the demanding environments of the French railway network.
Made primarily of robust metal, this wall-mounted telephone features a utilitarian gray finish characteristic of industrial equipment of the era. It includes a heavy handset, a main unit with the SNCF logo embossed on it, and an enameled instruction plate reading "TO CALL OR ANSWER, LIFT THE ARM OF THE POST." The original wiring is partially visible, attesting to its past function.
The overall condition reflects its authentic use in an industrial setting, with a pronounced patina that adds to its character. The metal structure is solid, retaining all its main components, including the wall fixings.
This SNCF telephone fits perfectly into an industrial or loft-style interior. It makes a unique decorative object for railway history enthusiasts or lovers of vintage utilitarian design.
Note: the two bells are missing.
See photos, thank you.
