In daylight it sits as a soft, pale purple. Hit it with UV and it flares into a vibrant, saturated purple that fades back over time — then under longwave UV specifically, it glows a warm orange instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis piece comes from Badakhshan Province in Afghanistan, one of the classic localities for gem-quality hackmanite. It arrives in a perky box with a black label typed in neon yellow ink — so when you hit it with UV, the label itself lights up right alongside the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003ePick your specimen above — each one is photographed individually so what you see is exactly what you get.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHackmanite's purple color fade is normal and part of its nature — re-expose it to UV (including sunlight) anytime to bring the color back.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GeoTheGeode","offers":[{"title":"#002","offer_id":52648109703479,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"#003","offer_id":52648109736247,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"#004","offer_id":52648109769015,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/6726\/4311\/files\/hackmanite_specimen_upclose_uv.png?v=1782860226","url":"https:\/\/www.geothegeode.com\/products\/hackmanite-specimen-perky-box-badakhshan-province-afghanistan","provider":"GeoTheGeode","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
