Vintage Pyradio Model 543.628 Pyramid AM/FM Radio – Manuel Guarnori Design
Striking vintage Pyradio pyramid radio designed by Swiss inventor and designer Manuel Guarnori. Dating to approximately the mid/late 1980s, this unusual radio has a sculptural stepped-pyramid form with glossy black finish — a great example of 1980s Postmodern / Space Age industrial design.
The pyramid sections themselves incorporate the radio controls, making the design particularly unusual and visually clean.
This example is in very clean vintage condition with only minor signs of age/use. Please review all photos for condition.
Tested and working well. Radio receives stations and produces clear, crisp sound.
Model: Pyradio 543.628
AM: 530–1640 kHz
FM: 88–108 MHz
Power: 6V / 4 C-cell (UM2) batteries
Power rating: 3W
A new set of four C batteries is included.
The radio also has a DC 6V power input. AC/DC adapter is not included; I have only tested the radio using batteries.
Includes its original Italian Ministero P.T. / Radio II approval label on the underside.
An unusual functional design object that displays beautifully even when not in use. Excellent addition to a collection of 1980s electronics, Postmodern design, Space Age design, vintage radios, or unusual sculptural objects.
