Comments:
I truly love this material; I enjoy any material that can do magic tricks, and is also natural. But this one is beyond magic tricks. It's so reactive to UV light that you'll have to look for the 'on' switch, because you'll swear it would have to be battery powered.
It's so reactive to UV light, that it even glows a little in regular daylight!
It's a nice sized square cabochon, polished on all sides, with a medium-height dome shape, and a great polish. The inclusions provide a great 'total texture' to the stone, and lend it an almost organic look.
