***A beautiful shiny necklace*** composed of:

+ Some fancy microelectronics

Till the late fifties of the past century people made uranium glass things.
Thats glass with 2-3% radioactive uranium238 in it.
No kidding.

Uranium has the property of releasing beautiful yellow/greenish photons when its hit by UV light (google:fluorescence).

Half a century later overflo realised that UV light makes a very nice and distinct green glow inside uranium glassware and the uranium project was born.
