I find especially interesting the Aurora diamond collection. It is shown in both conventional light and with the diamonds fluorescing under UV light. About 10% of diamonds worldwide fluoresce under UV light. And the good news is that they fluoresce best under the easy to make long wave ultraviolet light.
