It's probably a hearts and arrows viewer. If the diamonds are mounted you will only be able to use it as an arrows viewer. To do this, aim the viewer straight into the diamond from directly above.

If you were able to look at the back of he diamond you'd see the hearts if it has that pattern.

From the illustration I found online you try to get the girdle with the edge of the bottom tube. It's a fun toy, isn't it?

You can also flip it over and use it as a loupe.


I just now did that and mortified by how filthy my .84ct ACA is!

Stick the studs in the wider opening with red lining, and there's arrows!
