Brionvega Richard Sapper

Brionvega TS522 "Radio Cubo" White - Design Marco Zanuso & Richard Sapper - Italian Design Icon (SIM2 Edition) An Icon of Italian Industrial Design Designed in 1962 by the legendary architectural duo Marco Zanuso & Richard Sapper and launched in 1964, the Brionvega TS522 (famously known as Radio Cubo) is one of the most recognized and celebrated masterpieces of 20th-century industrial design. Featuring two folding ABS plastic cubes joined by a heavy-duty central hinge, it opens up to reveal its control panel and speaker grille, and folds back into a sleek, compact block when closed. Revered worldwide for its functional minimalism and pop-art aesthetic, examples of this design classic are permanently held in the world's most prestigious museums, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, as well as modern art museums in Osaka and São Paulo. This specific unit is the refined SIM2 Multimedia re-edition (produced in Pordenone, Italy), featuring the classic double circular tuning dial and memory display on a sleek black inner faceplate. Condition & Vintage Notes Aesthetic Condition: Authentic vintage state with characteristic aging. The ABS body shows uneven UV patination/yellowing typical for vintage white plastics (one half has retained a bright white shade while the other has shifted to a warm ivory tone). A subtle circular shadow from a historic sticker is visible on the rear. Battery Door: The rear battery compartment door is complete and original, but the plastic latch shows wear and does not stay firmly locked on its own without minor adjustment or tension padding. Chrome & Hardware: The central metal hinge, retracting handle with engraved BRIONVEGA logo, and the original telescopic antenna are all complete and in great structural condition.
