Description

A small English-made microscope in excellent condition. The objective thread is not the RMS standard, suggesting it was manufactured around 1858—the time when that thread was standardized and manufacturers began adopting it to allow for interchangeable objectives. Some makers resisted the change for a few years, and this was likely one of them. The objective consists of three stackable lenses; screwing in one or more of them yields different levels of magnification. It retains its original lacquer with minimal signs of wear, comes in a beautiful mahogany case, and includes a few antique prepared slides.
