A brass collar stands on three legs on a wooden stage with a circular hole. A lens is held in a brass setting that screws into the collar. This allows the lens to be focused on a specimen. Two metal spring clip are screwed to the stage, one on each side. Holes in the stage on the other side of lens suggest there were more clips attached.
