External Trumpet Gramophones 

Always the most engraved in the collective imagination, the Gramophones with external horn (Fiore) represent one of the most coveted furnishing accessories with their megaphonic sound.

Handcrafted gramophones

Given their character, the son of a project by some artisan grandfather and, therefore certainly not "standard", they can represent, when made to art, goods that are differently precious as they are unique.

Phonographs 

The first real testimony of the engraving on a durable medium dates back to the end of the 19th century. The Phonographers tell us of an even more ancient time, in which the desire of man to keep his voice preserved over time stood out.

Fonovalige Valvolari

With the birth of vinyl in 1947, there was a need for systems capable of reproducing all the existing discs (shellac at 78 rpm) and the new vinyls that instead went at 16, 33 and 45 rpm. at 3-4 speeds they performed this task perfectly.

Transistor Fonovalige 

Relatively younger than the Valvolari, the Transistor Fonovalige  characterized the portable music of the 60s / 70s.  Some of these were even equipped with batteries, testifying that they could be operated just about anywhere.
