AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

It depicts a Royal Albert bone china desk phone. These types of phones were manufactured between the 1960s and 1980s, often commissioned by the PTT (Dutch Post and Telecommunications).
Key features
Design: The body and receiver of the phone are made of floral porcelain, typically decorated with Royal Albert's popular "Old Country Roses" or "Constance" pattern.
Interface: Although it resembles an old rotary phone, it is a press-type (so-called "digidial") device. The dial and details are made of 22-carat gold.
Functions: It has "Flash" and "Herhaal" (redial) buttons, which is a reference to its Dutch origins. Some models are also equipped with an internal bell and pulse/tone dialing.
