Abstract
A hand-held gemstone viewing scope includes a slidable armature movable relative to a base and defining a viewer housing a lens. A platform is rotatably connected to a top end of the base and configured to adjustably mount a gemstone or ring in line with the lens. A gem laser inscription is determined by mounting a ring or gemstone in line with the lens, moving the armature to focus the lens on the gemstone, and rotating the platform until the gem inscription is located.
