Instrumento musical vanguardista raro producido en 1959 en la Fábrica de Equipos de Radio de Kyiv (KZRA) en Kyiv, Unión Soviética, durante la era de la Guerra Fría. Este instrumento presenta un acabado clásico niquelado sobre componentes de latón, manteniendo su peso estándar tradicional de 950 g y una pátina histórica auténtica.

Historia de la Fábrica
Las raíces históricas de la empresa se remontan a talleres artesanales organizados en Kyiv en 1924, tras la revolución. Con el tiempo, estos talleres se convirtieron en una gran asociación de producción, y a finales de la década de 1950 la empresa recibió el nombre de Kyiv Radio Equipment Plant (KZRA). Junto a su producción principal, la fábrica fabricaba instrumentos raros de viento y otros instrumentos musicales, que recibían la marca 

Rare vintage musical instrument produced in 1959 at the Kyiv Radio Equipment Plant (KZRA) in Kyiv, Soviet Union during the Cold War era. This instrument features a classic nickel-plated finish over brass components, maintaining its traditional heavy standard weight of 950 g and authentic historical patina.

History of the Plant
The historical roots of the enterprise date back to artisanal workshops organized in Kyiv in 1924, following the revolution. Over time, these workshops grew into a large production association, and in the late 1950s, the enterprise was named the Kyiv Radio Equipment Plant (KZRA). Alongside its primary production, the plant manufactured rare wind and other musical instruments, which were assigned the "Orpheus" brand. In the early 1980s, the plant underwent a major reorganization and was transformed into the legendary "Mayak" factory, which launched the production of the iconic "Mayak-203" reel-to-reel tape recorders—devices that became world-famous and a true hit among the youth across the entire Soviet Union.

The physical characteristics and specific metrics of this collectible piece include a Bb key configuration, standard piston valves, and an approximate bell diameter of 13 cm. The build incorporates a nickel leadpipe and nickel-plated valves, reflecting the distinct manufacturing standards of the period.

The item is offered as a collectible vintage display piece and is sold in untested condition with visible cosmetic wear, spotting, and age-related flaws as documented in the visual materials. Professional servicing by a qualified technician is required if intended for musical performance. The package includes the cornet, the matching mouthpiece, and the original fitted hard case, bringing the total parcel weight to approximately 2670 g with dimensions around 49 by 21 by 15 cm.

The keys and valves of the instrument are fully movable and not seized. The instrument is completely complete, with all its components assembled. Nevertheless, we strongly recommend carrying out professional adjustment and tuning work in a specialized, licensed wind instrument repair shop. Since the musical instrument has gone without playing practice for over half a century, it in any case requires a master's touch for final adjustment. Furthermore, during international delivery, shaking, vibrations, as well as changes in temperature, humidity, and pressure are inevitable during transit, which also requires skilled fine-tuning before full use.

We have extensive experience in the safe shipping of fragile musical instruments: as seen in the photos, the original vintage case is perfectly preserved. Before shipping, the instrument itself will be carefully secured inside the case with a special filler to ensure absolute immobility. After that, the case is placed into an additional sturdy cardboard box protected on all six sides with a three-centimeter layer of Styrofoam and cushioning filler, serving as reliable secondary insurance during transit.
