A box is provided for displaying items, at least one of which is an ultraviolet-reactive item. The box Is sized for Insertion into a showcase. The box includes a box structure for containing the items to be displayed, and has at least one shadowing surface, and at least one open or glazed surface. Lighting is provided that is wired with the box structure, and includes a 365 nm ultraviolet LED diode assembly in an adjustable strip. A means is provided for directing the position or orientation of the adjustable strip so that the ultraviolet LED stimulates visible fluorescence in the ultraviolet- reactive item, while areas in the box are subject to ambient or showcase white light penetrating into the box structure through the at least one open or glazed surface: and areas in the box are subject to shadowing from the at least one shadowing surface.

A display box displays the fluorescence of a gemstone having naturally occurring phosphors. The box has a top portion hinged with a bottom portion. A compact ultraviolet LED assembly is mounted at a mounting angle in the insert in a cavity of the top portion. The LED assembly has: an LED circuit; a 3 watt 365 nm ultraviolet LED diode disposed on the LED circuit; and an optical collimator having a parabolic lens to focus the emitted LED radiation to a less than 15° spread. A compact battery for powering the LED assembly is provided in a recess of the bottom portion. A central holder/deck holds the gemstone in a direct path of the emitted collimated LED radiation of the LED assembly. In operation, the gemstone seated in the central holder/deck emits a corona of strong visible fluorescence while the ultraviolet radiation and the LED assembly are not seen.

A showcase is provided for displaying items, at least one of which is an ultraviolet-reactive item. The showcase has a showcase structure for containing the items to be displayed, which includes at least one glazed surface through which the items can be seen. Showcase lighting is provided wired with the showcase structure. The showcase lighting includes: at least one compact ultraviolet LED assembly; a white light assembly; and a controller for controlling the ultraviolet LED assembly and white light assembly with modulation such that the ultraviolet radiation stimulates visible fluorescence in the ultraviolet-reactive item while items in the showcase structure are broadly illuminated by the white light. A method for displaying items in a showcase, and a kit for retrofitting existing showcases is also provided.
