This Ericsson telephone model was made in Brazil, it features a heavy Bakelite body, a coiled handset cord, and the iconic circular dial with finger holes used to manually input numbers. The brand Ericsson is originally from Sweden, and over the years, it became known as one of the major names in global telecommunication. Although simple on the surface, this model was known for its durability and became widely used in both homes and government offices around the world. The DBH 1001 was part of Ericsson’s global line of standardized phones, adapted locally depending on the country of manufacture.
