Shop Made - 6 Lamps Radio

Old valve radio set presented in an elegant wooden cabinet, probably French-made and dating roughly from the 1930s-1940s.

The front panel, in a sober and geometric style, consists of a black board equipped with two large circular graduated dials, each with its adjustment knob, as well as several secondary controls.

The wooden case features decorative vertical moldings on the sides and a beautiful patina corresponding to its age.

The rear opens and allows observation of the chassis and several old electronic tubes, characteristic of radio receivers of that period. An old French stamp/label bearing the word “Radiodiffusion” is also present on the back.

The device shows significant signs of its age and use: scratches, marks, wear and wood-soiling, as well as defects and openings visible at certain joints of the cabinet. The whole is sold in its current condition, in accordance with the photographs.
