Description

The 6-tube radio, with its classic chest-like design and lid, proudly bears the name "L´ONDYNE." But what does it mean? Was it the signature of its creator? Or perhaps the mark of the merchant who sold it? The mystery remains unsolved, and even the vast depths of the internet offer no clues.
During the pioneering days of radio broadcasting and receiver manufacturing, the scene was bustling—not just with major companies but with passionate enthusiasts building radios in their own homes. Some created only a handful of units, lovingly crafted and unique. One such relic has survived the tides of history and found its way to us today, offering a glimpse into the ingenuity and creativity of that remarkable era.
