Gramophones

A few posts back I wrote about reproduction Murano art glass. Continuing on that theme here is another reproduction of a very popular item – the gramophone.  As I wrote earlier, nothing compares with the original designs. I’d rather own an original design but it’s not always possible – either because of availability or price. If you are a collector of antiques you would most likely ‘cringe’ at the thought of buying a reproduction piece. But if you are not necesaarily a collector and looking for a decor piece with a difference then reproductions would suit you ….. and your wallet.

Timber base with wind up handle & brass horn – it’s in working order & will play your old 75s. The octagonal design is my favourite.

These reproduction gramophones are a gorgeous decor accessory – very impressive and a great conversation piece.

Ciao for now,

2 Creative Chit-Chats to “Gramophones”

  • kai:

    where do you buy these reproduction gramopones from and how much do they cost?

  • Hi Kai – these were available via ebay but I don’t know what’s there now. Just do a search on ebay for ‘reproduction gramophones’ to find tif they’re still available. Prices vary depending on how many bid on the auctions.
