Polariscopes are used to quickly and easily check if gemstones are single or double
refracting, very useful in identifying moissanite and detecting strain in diamonds
and other gems. Polariscopes are also used to separate synthetic amethyst
from genuine. This desktop instrument has a built-in light source.
