Topaz OT 2141 television set3D Model
In Poland, production of TV sets began in 1956, at the Warszawskie Zakłady Telewizyjne (WZT). The first receiver was the Wisła, made under Soviet licence. One of the many products of WZT of the 1960s is the Topaz black-and-white television set. Technically, the device is a modification of the Agat receiver of 1964. The Topaz was manufactured in versions with a 21” or 23” CRT, both of which were designs with a deflection angle of 110°, allowing the receiver to be put on a shelf or on a chest of drawers. Unified Polish television sets, of which the Topaz is an example, set out a new direction for the development of Poland’s television industry, represented by three enterprises operating within the framework of the Unitra union: WZT, Zakłady Diora w Dzierżoniowie, and Gdańskie Zakłady Telewizyjne.
