Description is exactly The cuff-style compound microscope stands on a large oak base with a drawer. The brass microscope is connected to the base by 4 splayed short legs, one of which is connected to the sub-stage plano-concave mirror set in a gimbal. The instrument has a rectangular pillar which is connected to the screw adjustment controlled by the thumbscrew at the top of the pillar. The decorative sculptural triform stage has a circular cut out and attachment which is spring loaded to hold the slides. The instrument comes with a small bulls-eye condenser and specimen holder which connect to the stage via a pin. The body-tube is held by the arm which allows the body-tube to be adjusted by sliding it closer or further from the stage. The instrument can also be used as a simple microscope by detaching the nosepiece attachment and using it to examine specimens. An addition to the nosepiece of the body-tube allows the instrument to be used as a compound or simple microscope by removing the attachment or sliding the slide above the objective lens. The addition is spring-loaded which secures the slide in place. The eye piece has a protective cover which slides out of place. The base has one draw which holds the microscopes accessories and slides.
