 | Loupes up to £5.00
Generally, the higher the price the better the quality of the LENS. In this section is what I call 'eBay quality' - indeed, some of these are the very same "high quality" loupes on eBay and in street markets. |
|
 | Loupes, approx. £5.00 to £20.00
Generally, the higher the price the better the quality of the LENS. The loupes in this section are popular with many professional traders who keep losing them and don't see why they should spend a lot of money - they are quite OK, to get 'good' quality you really do need to spend about £20.00. |
|
 | Loupes from £20.00 upwards
Generally, the higher the price the better the quality of the LENS. The loupes in this section are the best quality. The Zeiss loupes are used by professional diamond dealers and gemmologists. A good loupe is the best of all gem testers |

 | Loupes adapted to clip to spectacles
We have taken the best loupes and adapted them so that they clip to the side of spectacles - a more powerful and better quality than a watchmaker's eyeglass. |
|
 | Loupes, illuminated
Good lighting makes all the difference. If you are working in a shop, workshop or laboratory get yourself a good table light to work under; if you are working in dimly-lit halls, auction rooms, early morning antiques markets etc, then a loupe with a built-in light is ideal. |
