A microscope lamp is a necessary accessory for microscopy. This simple microscope lamp can be connected directly to the mains. The lantern is equipped with a condenser and the light output is sufficient even for binocular observations at high magnifications. There are two versions: one with and one without a built-in daylight filter.
From the Bleeker collection of Peter Paul de Bruijn.
