10X12 Jewellers Loupe 4 Element Ref: 10X12-4EL
The 10X may not be large but size is not everything: the image is the best of all the loupes (with the possible exception of the Zeiss) - perfect to the very edge of the lens ('flat field' - that's rare!).

Physical size (mm): 23X25 X17 (deep)

10X12 Jewellers Loupe 4 Element

Quantity:  

Double loupe 5X/10X Ref: DBL10

Two 5X14 (5X magnification, 14mm diameter lens), when used together they form a 10X magnifier. The cheapest of all the 10X magnifiers, at £2.00 the quality isn't exactly the best but i'ts quite adequate as a powerful 'first' magnifier.

Double loupe 5X/10X

Quantity:  

Loupe 10X15 Ref: 10X15

10X magnification, 15mm dia. lens. Plastic and aluminium contruction, a 'beginners' loupe. Some people say, "Is it really only £3.00? It's a bargain!" and snap it up; other people say, "Why does the image appear wobbly?"

Loupe 10X15

Quantity:  

Loupe, 10X12 Ref: 10X12

10X magnification, 12mm dia. lens. Folds into strong metal case, the most popular for traders who keep losing their loupe and don't want to spend much, and the quality is quite 'adequate' for reading small marks though not (in my opinion) good enough for examining inclusions in gemstones.

Physical size (mm): 30X20 X17 (deep)

Loupe, 10X12

Quantity:  

10X14 JEWELLERS LOUPE Ref: 10X14

In April and May I took a selection of loupes to the fairs and displayed them all at the same price (irrespective of value) to see which customers preferred.

Physical size (mm): 25X17 X13 (deep)

This one was the least popular! This was almost certainly because of its overall small size (it's tiny) - and people tend to think size is everything.

HOWEVER, I can see (and my colleague agrees) that the QUALITY of this lens is far better than the standard 10X12 above (the image is much sharper). Of all the 'inexpensive' loupes, this is my favourite.

10X14 JEWELLERS LOUPE

Quantity:  

10X23 JEWELLERS LOUPE Ref: 10x23

In April and May I took a selection of loupes to the fairs and displayed them all at the same price (irrespecrtive of value) to see which customers preferred.

This was the favourite, preferred to our standard 10X12 (the one featured in our mail order catalogue) probably because the lens is so large, The lens quality is comparable with the 10X12.

10X23 JEWELLERS LOUPE

Quantity:  

10X16 loupe Ref: 10X16

10X magnification, 16mm diameter lens, nice quality, crisp image. The price reflects the quality, better than those listed above but nowhere near as good as the £20.00+ loupes.

Physical size (mm): 27X20 X20 (deep)

10X16 loupe

Quantity:  

Plastic loupe, 3 lenses combined = 10X Ref: 3LENS

Large lenses, three lenses of approx. 3X magnification combine to give approx. 10X magnification, truly awful optical quality but quite popular at the fairs - all those lenses and all that magnification, and all for £3.00!

Plastic loupe, 3 lenses combined = 10X

Quantity:  

20X21 loupe Ref: 20X21

This loupe is VERY popular at the fairs, customers don't compare it with anything esle, they simply want the most powerful at the cheapest possible price. "Does it work?" you say. Of course it 'works' ! But obviously you get a better lens that gives a far clearer image if you spend more money (especially if you spend more money AND choose a lower magnification)

20X21 loupe

Quantity:  

15X12 loupe Ref: 15X12

If I were to choose a loupe of more than 10X magnification my choice would have to be the 15X, it is tiny (overall much smaller than the 10X12 on the previous page) and the image is perfect to the very edge of the lens ('flat field' - that's rare!).

15X12 loupe

Quantity:  

THIS ITEM NOW SOLD - SORRY

Double folding magnifier, 2 lenses combined = 14X Ref: DBL14

One lens gives 6X magnification, the other 8X magnification, combined = 14X magnification. Lenses 20mm diameter, overall size 35mm X 30mm X 15mm.

Neat and small , nicely-made, and exceedlngly powerful. Although a little 'basic' in optical quality, if you want a small pocket-size loupe that is stronger than 10X and inexpensive, then this one isn't too bad.

Double folding magnifier, 2 lenses combined = 14X

Quantity:  

20X12 loupe Ref: 20x12

20X is good, but a bit too powerful for my liking. However, if you do want a 20X, this one is the best of the lot.

Quantity:  

Double loupe, 2 lenses combined = 10X Ref: 7534

One lens is 4X magnification, the other is 6X magnification, put them together and you have 10X magnification. All plastic. Zeiss-style. In fact, the design is an exact copy of the Zeiss but at a less than a tenth of the price...and a tenth of the quality.

Double loupe, 2 lenses combined = 10X

Quantity:  

10X20 Loupe on a Stand Ref: 10X20-STAND2

One arm extends to 7 inches (single swivel-tilt mechanism), supplied in a heavy duty pouch, lens is 20mm diameter, 10X magnification. Quite adequate for quick inspection or emergency repairs but not (in my opinion) good enough for working under for prolonged periods (see other loupe on a stand, ref. 10X30-stand). Good value nevertheless.
