It's a new design, but the Lexon Mezzo radio could easily pass as a weird and wonderful design of the past.

Lexon safe calculator
We've featured the bamboo, retro-style Lexon Safe radio previously but the products in the range go beyond that piece to include clocks, flashlights and this calculator.
Designed by Elise Berthier and Pierre Garner, you can tell the calculator comes from the same design family as the radio. Its chunky keys and rounded edges give it that retro look while its got eco credentials too: solar powered and made from natural bamboo with a casing from corn starch bio-plastic.
And the price for the calculator? It adds up to £21.40.

Lexon Safe retro-styled eco radio by Elium Studio
Eco-friendly radios don't usually come with retro looks – unless you pick up the Lexon Safe eco radio by Elium Studio.
Made of maize bio-plastic and bamboo, this AM/FM radio has the looks of a vintage piece of audio, but has some very modern functionality – with wind-up operation, recharging via the mains or by old-fashioned mains power. You can also hook up your MP3 player if you want to use it as a speaker.
Available online, the Lexon Safe sells for £55.
