Tesla electrical oscillator
Summary
A compact Tesla coil invented by Nikola Tesla in the late 1890s. A technical article describing how these compact coils work and giving circuit diagrams is "Tesla circuit controllers for obtaining oscillatory currents of high frequency" in The Electrical Engineer, New York, Vol. 26, No. 538, August 25, 1898, p. 180-182

Nikola Tesla (1856–1943) Serbian American inventor and engineer who discovered and patented the rotating magnetic field, the basis of most alternating-current machinery. He also developed the three-phase system of electric power transmission. He immigrated to the United States in 1884 and sold the patent rights to his system of alternating-current dynamos, transformers, and motors to George Westinghouse.
