Amadio may only have produced the microscope lenses, buying the brass and other metalwork elsewhere. However, their microscopes and preparations were very well thought of. Both of their surviving catalogues (1858 and 1864) proclaim them to be \u201cOpticians to the Admiralty\u201d. Amadio also had many influential clients who undoubtedly helped his sales.
