These kind of furniture styled TVs are called in Germany: Gelsenkirchener Barock.
Gelsenkirchen is a city which had a lot of companies to build furnitures.
The blond set is called Narvik, blond sets are "scandinavian styled".
Narvik is a scandinavian City (Norway), because it is a long time dark in winter in these areas,
people from the north hated the dark sets which were common in center europe.
Close by all german TVs and radios which were sold in Scandinavia are
blond!
In Germany only about 10% were blond, the Price was always higher too for a blond cabinet.
England and Belgium or Spain had a lot of mahagony cabinets, Austria and Germany used
like France mostly french walnut.
