Magneto desk phone in a black metal casing, seated on black metal base. It is equipped with a bronze handset with a black plastic handle mounted on a bronze cradle ("fork" design); a black woven cord connects it to the device and a burgundy one to the connection. On the left is a hand crank for the making of calls. It is considered one of the most elaborate devices of that time. The device's innovative feature was the mute ringer function, quite widespread in Denmark. Following this, a new innovative modification allowed for the adjustment of the sound volume, resulting to the manufacture of a number of copies and replicas.
