    Not sure of this is the right place to post, mods please move if needed.

    Was under a UV light today and looked at my rings and the diamonds down the bands are different colours, pic attached.most are a rusty/red colour with some bright blue and yellow.

    Does anyone know why this would be? Different clarity/cleanliness or has a cubic zirconia been put in without my knowledge? Don't want to go back to the jewellers if this is normal.

    Thanks for any input :)

    Google "fluorescence in diamonds". I would say that is the issue. If you have a diamond cert for your ring it should specify it
