 		I was playing with my blacklight, testing all my diamonds for fluorescence.  A couple of small accent stones in a ring glowed blue, which was cool - I knew what I was looking for, once I'd seen the effect for myself.

I tried the tiny (0.02ct) accent stone in a pendant next, and to my surprise it glowed orange!

I wouldn't want that in my engagement ring, but in a tiny stone on a pendant I thought that was kind of neat.  The diamond is supposed to be I-J, I2-I3; it's so tiny that I can't see anything except the setting anyway so the orange fluor doesn't adversely affect it.

Sorry I don't have pictures
