Easiest solution would be a simple Radio Shack 24 or 18 volt DC power
supply on the tip and ring of the phones and a small 12 volt DC piezo
buzzer on the spare pairs with a pushbutton to "ring" it.

Well you could use ringers, but its not so easy a solution. You'd need
a 90 VAC power supply and a way to detect ring trip to stop the ringing
or feed it on the spare pairs), then a balanced 24 VDC feed (although
you could get away with a ground sided one).

The elegant solution is to use a Viking DLA-200B ringdown.
