Light box for small items, e.g. gemstones

Quicktest

£23.5

Details A light box for illuminating small objects. We have in mind gemstones. Though any small samples can be lit, from leaves and insects to stamps and fabrics. The obvious method of lighting a gemstone is to hold the gemstone (in a stone-holder) in one hand and hold a torch in the other hand, but you should also light it from underneath (which gives a totally different view). The easiest way to do this is to place it over the light source - on a light box. The picture shows a large synthetic ruby. This is not included in the price. Screen size, 36 X 36mm Overall, 95 x 55mm. Power: 2x AAA al

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as QUICKTEST LIMITED, number 06024230. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
