The Clégil Stéréoscope is a folding universal stereoscope. The device takes its name from the Clégil trademark used by its manufacturers, Clément & Gilmer. It was designed by Émile Rosengard, who appears to have also distributed the stereoscope under his own name, as some surviving examples bear the initials E. R.
