I've included varying photos of this pendant:
- Intensifying to a darker and brighter pink when exposed to sunlight
- Indoors under LED lighting
- Fluorescing under a blacklight UV flashlight
*PLEASE NOTE: The Tugtupite crystal is a bit lighter in color when stored in a box and not exposed to UV light or sunlight. The color is more like raspberry sorbet.
Photos show the Tugtupite pendant under LED lighting a few hours after it was exposed to sunlight. A photo also shows the pendant fluorescing under a blacklight flashlight.
This rare crystal is an amazing collector piece for your jewelry collection that you can pass on to loved ones.
Tugtupite has been worn by Greenland Inuits for millennia and is considered a mineral aphrodisiac of love. Tugtupite is extremely hard to acquire since the ground in Greenland is frozen for the majority of time during the year. Tugtupite is made of a rare beryllium aluminum tectosilicate.
***Please beware of fake Tugtupite that has recently been popping up on the market that is a man made composite of other materials. Natural authentic Tugtupite is not super bright fluorescent pink under regular indoor lighting. It is a lighter bubble gum pink before UV light exposure. Fake Tugtupite will not darken in color under sunlight. There are only a few crystals in our realm that have this magical naturally occurring phenomenon.
