it looked like a small bronze pamplet just 5-6 inches and was kind of heavy.
What was the name of the first microscope?
The first microscope was called the "single lens microscope" and was invented by Zacharias Janssen in the late 16th century.
The first microscope was a simple handheld magnifying glass, known as a "simple microscope." It had a single convex lens and was used to magnify small objects. The compound microscope, with two lenses for greater magnification, was developed later.

The first thing looked at under a microscope was likely a biological specimen, such as a plant cell or animal tissue, in the 17th century. The microscope allowed scientists to observe these tiny structures in detail for the first time.

Hooke looked at a slice of cork and saw that it look like a cell where monks and nuns used to sleep.
The microscope was first invented and used by Robert Hooke. He looked at slices of cork under the microscope and noticed that they look like the little rooms that monks used. These were called cells. And so came the term cells for what makes up tissues.
The first microscope to be developed was the optical microscope. An early microscope was made in 1590 in Middelburg, Netherlands. Two eyeglass makers are variously given credit: Hans Lippershey (who developed an early telescope) and Zacharias Janssen. Van Leeuwenhoek improved a microscope and first described cells seen in cork tissue. He called them cells as they looked like little rooms, similar to ones that monks lived in.
