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
