How To Use A Jeweler’s Loupe To Examine Your Diamond
A jeweler’s
loupe is an important tool for inspecting diamonds internal and
external characteristics. You don’t need to be a skilled gemologist
to use this tool however. Anyone with the basic following
information can confidently inspect a diamond. Jeweler's loupes are used to
inspect diamonds and are generally at 10 times magnification of
normal vision. With a loupe, you can look for inclusions, scratches,
and other flaws both internal and external. This is not a license to
become a gemologist, however, and you should not assume you will be
able to see every detail or inclusion that a professional is trained
to see. |
