Student Microscope, ca. 1920

Beautiful Student Microscope, Small and Compact. Made circa 1920. In Working Order

This delicate microscope is a piece manufactured in the first quarter of the 20th century, full of charm and precision. Its small size suggests that it is a student microscope intended for use in laboratory practicals. Compact and functional, it is well-preserved and works perfectly. It features a solid black-enameled iron base with a clamping fork that supports the turret and the polished brass screws. The microscope incorporates a condenser lens designed to improve sample illumination during examination.

The varnish protecting the brass is original, and the slight wear visible affects only the finish: the metal itself is in excellent condition. The microscope stands out for its beautiful and simple design. All of its parts and components are original and function perfectly. In some areas, there are certain signs of use and the instrument's age, which only serve to attest to its long history and its past as a scientific research tool. Of course, these details do not affect the microscope's proper functioning in the slightest; it can be used just as it was on the first day.

Beneath the specimen stage, we can see the oscillating mirror typical of vintage microscopes-original and very well preserved. The instrument also retains the two brass screws located on either side of the turret, designed to precisely focus the view of the specimens. The small size of this microscope makes it a very special piece, with an eye-catching vintage charm that sets it apart as a truly unique instrument.

Attractive and functional, this student microscope is a perfect addition to the collection of any true lover of vintage instruments.
