Default Italian radio (0/1)

It almost certainly is a tube radio since it has a tuning eye. While it
would be technically possible to add a tuning eye to a solid state
radio, it would involve a lot of parts used only for this purpose (such
as a high voltage power supply). Some companies have been known to do
weird things, but, until proven otherwise, assume it is a tube set.

No frequency markings on the dial. It's not the first set like that
I've seen but it is uncommon.

While in Italy last week I spotted this radio in an art studio. I
thought it looked pretty cool. I was not able to peer into the
chassis at all and did not want to turn it on without permission so I
am not even sure if it is at tube model but suspect that it is.

Anyone know what it might be?
