VINTAGE CARL ZEISS JENA HIGH GRADE MICROSCOPE WITH WOODEN BOX 1940'S.
Carl Zeiss founded his company in 1846 in Jena, Germany and focused solely on making each microscope by hand.
In the early years of the company, Zeiss met Ernst Abbe, a freelance researcher, professor of physics and mathematics, who was very interested in the field of optics.

One of his most notable... innovations was the Abbe Condenser, a staple of many modern microscopes.
From the early 1900s onward, Zeiss expanded into other optical fields and began to manufacture telescopes, binoculars, spectacle lenses, surgical instruments, attachment lenses for cameras and advances in astronomical instruments
