Hidden Flame is a stretch bracelet strung with polished round yooperlite beads, a natural stone that carries fluorescent sodalite. In ordinary light the beads read as gray, charcoal, cream and earthy brown; under a suitable UV or black light, parts of the stone fluoresce orange in irregular flashes, with no battery, paint or coating involved.
The beads measure approximately 0.31 in across and the bracelet has a 7.48 in perimeter, slipping on over the hand on elastic cord. Because each bead’s mineral pattern differs, the amount and shape of the orange reaction varies from bracelet to bracelet, and the effect is only visible while the stone is exposed to the appropriate UV light.

How to use
Requirements for fluorescence
A suitable UV or black light is required. Fluorescence appearance varies based on the lamp’s wavelength and power, the distance from the bracelet, ambient light, camera settings, and the concentration of fluorescent material in each bead.
For optimal viewing, observe the bracelet in a dim environment and direct the UV light across the beads. Do not shine UV light into eyes, and follow the safety instructions provided with the light source.
Frequently asked questions
What causes the orange color under UV light?
Fluorescent sodalite within the stone responds to ultraviolet light and emits visible orange light. The size and intensity of the fluorescent areas vary naturally.
Will every bead glow equally?
No. The fluorescent material is distributed irregularly, so one bead may show a broad orange patch while another reveals smaller flecks or a softer response.
How does the bracelet fasten?
It uses an elastic slip-on construction rather than an adjustable clasp.
Is it only for Halloween?
No. The orange UV reaction suits Halloween and black-light events, while its neutral daylight appearance works as a simple everyday stone bracelet.
