I would get some paint color sample cards from a paint store or Lowes, from white to brown and ask the lady which one she prefers. We all know what beige is but some people confuse it with ash, ivory, or even light brown. When I think of beige, I think of the butt ugly W.E. 2500 sets.
If she can't live without that color another option would be to get them professionally painted with no-odor paint, but if they were new phones it would void the warranty when you take them apart.
Don't ya hate when someone makes a request like that?

The partner phones they have look real beige not painted or yellowed.

Partner system telephones were not "beige" per-se. Are the phones MLSs or Euro 1s? Here is an example of a white MLS telephone.

It is always the cheapest people who live in the most expensive places that are the pickiest. Isn't that some kind of rule or law or something?
Thanks all, Bracha

Leona Helmsley insisted on a Gold phone for the lobby of the Helmsley Park Lane Hotel. No one made one (2565). She, of course, wouldn't pay extra for one. It just HAD TO BE THERE at cutover.
We took an ITT cocoa brown set apart and spray painted it. We also sprayed about a dozen cords and left them in the switch room for repair to use as they cracked.

Sam, Didn't WE once make gold phones for special commemorative purposes? I recall installing a 2564 once for a customer. I think it was plated since it was so shiny.
