rounded wooden ornaments on the sides and a white border
around the speaker and the wavelength scale. The large
glass wavelength scale is lit by four scale lamps at
every
corner. In the middle of the front there are two
semicircular brass profiles and a brass rim around
the tuning indicator. For medium wave, long wave and
short wave reception.
The knobs from left to right: tone

The chassis for this brand were probably
made by Belgian radio factory Barco.
