This extraordinary early 18th-century microscope is a museum-worthy example of scientific innovation and craftsmanship made by Edmund Culpeper. The design reflects a clear lineage from Yarwell’s 1683 tripod microscope, placing it among the most important early 18th-century microscopes. Housed in its original oak pillar case and accompanied by Culpeper’s trade card bearing crossed daggers, the instrument exemplifies the golden age of British optical craftsmanship.View more details on our website.
