Vintage 1950s small esl microscope in lovely hand made oak box with slides etc 26 cm tall 10 cm wide 11 cm depth some age related wear

This wonderful boxed microscope could still be used or just an amazing decorative item

It's not clear who invented the first microscope, but the Dutch spectacle maker Zacharias Janssen (b.1585) is credited with making one of the earliest compound microscopes (ones that used two lenses) around 1600. The earliest microscopes could magnify an object up to 20 or 30 times its normal size.
