Check this out, a Crystal Radio
When I first see this I actually though that it was a microwave oven or something, and in fact was quite surprised when I found out that it was a radio.
Designed by Scandinavian designer Per Sundberg, who named this project Model One, which is available through Tivoli.
Now this radio has been encased in handcrafted crystal, yet this does not make the radio look cool or hi tech, in fact quite the opposite, I am not too sure whether it is the crystal, the radio or both together that is at fault, yet this product still carries a price tag of $5,866, so somebody must like it.
