Two small radios from France. Restoration and review.
#6

And here they are, the French beauties ready:

   

   

In summary, the suspicion that radio transmits the national character traits of its country of origin has been fully confirmed.
A completely fantasy-boudoir design and God knows what the French have in the filling.
The Germans have a design that is so meticulously polished that it seems insane, with the elegance of a cinder block.
Americans - so that 100 pieces on a conveyor belt can be assembled by 2 blacks in an 10 hour and all 100 pieces work as one.


A French-style advertising poster for one of the clones of the above devices

   




Erb RadioMuseum did not find any exact matching devices. They did have the exact same chassis, but with slightly different case designs

Erb's description of the analog of the first - JS Radio Paris

Erb's description of the analog of the second - Sonaphone Prélude P6
