Vintage from the 1950s – Ultra Rare -Function Radiogram Console 

Radio • Turntable • Reel-to-Reel Tape System (Flip-Top Mechanism)

 

Origin:

An exceptional mid-century radiogram console from the late 1950s, combining a radio receiver, a vinyl turntable, and a reel-to-reel tape system, all housed within a beautifully crafted wooden cabinet. This piece belongs to the golden era of European home entertainment design, when furniture makers sought to merge high-fidelity audio systems with elegant cabinetry.

The cabinet features a warm honey-blonde wood veneer with classic mid-century louvered panels, brass knob hardware, and a sculptural frame elevated on tapered legs. The flip-top design reveals the turntable on one side and the reel-to-reel unit on the other, showcasing a sophisticated engineering approach typical of premium brands of the era—similar in style to Telefunken, Philips, Graetz, and other renowned European manufacturers.

Pieces that integrate all three systems—radio, vinyl, and reel-to-reel—are highly collectible today, especially when preserved in a complete cabinet. This radiogram represents a rare example of multifunctional mid-century audio furniture designed as a home centerpiece rather than a technical device.

Condition:

The console remains in very good vintage condition for its age. The wood exterior shows natural signs of aging, with some surface marks and patina consistent with a 1950s cabinet. The doors and flip-tops open smoothly, and all internal components (radio, turntable, and tape unit) are complete and original. The radio fascia shows vintage wear but retains its authenticity and charm. Overall, the piece presents beautifully, with structurally solid legs and frame, making it suitable both as a collector’s display object and a functional restoration project.

 

Size:

  • Width: 165 cm

Details:

The radiogram features a harmonious balance of craftsmanship and engineering. The honey-colored cabinet is complemented by mid-century slatted speaker panels, rounded brass knobs, and a softly curved radio display window. The flip-up panels reveal two separate audio systems—a vinyl turntable and a reel-to-reel tape deck—both integrated seamlessly into the design. The radio unit features classic frequency markings, textured fabric grille, and dual control knobs typical of high-end European audio manufacturers of the period. Together, these elements create a richly nostalgic and visually striking piece that embodies the innovation and aesthetic values of 1950s modern design.

 

Perfect for:

  • Collectors of mid-century audio and European radiograms
  • Vintage interior design, studios, lounges, and creative spaces
  • Film sets, editorial shoots, and period staging
  • Anyone seeking a rare, sculptural statement piece with historical charm
