Primario Loupe

You don't need to have vision problems to use a magnifying glass: even with 20/20 vision, there are things that are just too small: the paperwork for our smartphones, for example. And when it comes to magnifying glasses, the loupe type is way more practical than the more common handheld version: you can use it and still have both your hands free, and it can also work as decoration for your desk. Especially if it is as beautifully designed as the Primario Loupe, which comes with the signature of award-winning designer Michio Akita.

Like all master designers, Akita combines function and aesthetic in the Primario Loupe: the three arches supporting its 2.5 magnification lens not only give it a unique style but also allow light to fall all over the subject under the loupe, so you can see it as clearly as possible. The anodized aluminum 6063 gives the item a distinctive texture and, at the same time, guarantees it will last for decades. In a choice of two lens sizes and available in silver or black, this will fit any desk setting.
