UNIVERSAL SIMPLE AND COMPOUND MICROSCOPE

MAKER: CHARLES CHEVALIER

c. 1840

SIGNED: 'Microscope Achromatique Universel, de, Charles Chevalier, Ingénieur Opticien, Palais Royal 163 Paris'

This illustrates its use as a simple microscope. There are three simple doublet lenses.

The arm for the simple lenses was missing from my instrument. I fabricated a replica using examples of the arm from two other similar instruments as models. Click on the image of the arm for more views.
