Abstract
A magnifying device for jewelry and system for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the magnifying device, a securing ring is coupled to a body to selectively attach in a snap-fit engagement with a gem tester. A hinge assembly is also coupled to the body and a support frame is pivotally coupled thereto. A seat within the support frame defines a circular opening securing a magnifying lens therein. The support frame also includes a pivot blade extending therefrom that accepts rotational bearing force to cause the support frame and therefore the magnifying lens to rotate relative to the body.
