The most important aspect of the Refractometer is the quality of the fluid and its Refractive Index. This product has a Refractive Index value of 1.81RI and is THE best product for accurate GEM Identification.

This is a better deal!
The Gem Refractometer Liquid has a refractive index of nD = 1.810, the highest of any liquid not containing arsenic. As the name implies, it is widely used with gem refractometers as a contact medium for the identification of gemstones. This light yellow liquid can also be used to reduce or eliminate glare from a gem's surface, facilitating inspection of the gem's interior for inclusions and other defects.
This liquid is supplied by a highly reputable American supplier in bulk and repackaged in an amber glass bottle. The cap has a plastic applicator rod attached to it on the inside, designed to deliver a small droplet.
To ensure the liquids maximum shelf life, keep this liquid tightly sealed after opening, store it away from direct light and in moderate temperatures.
