Howard Nutton based in Glasgow Scotland with a background in Natural Science along with previous career in risk management. I obtained my first antique microscope in 1988 - it was a Watson Edinburgh model H serial number 23604 - dating it to 1918. Since that time I've owned and restored hundreds of similar instruments. As Arcboutant Scientific now also making available personally curated fine examples, principally of antique microscopes and associated scientific equipment by quality English and Continental makers, to collectors world-wide.
