[edit]Having the characteristics of a shiny jewel.
isn't that slightly unprofessional? I would like to see a page on 'brilliance' of a gemstone.

brilliance characterizes a radiation source. cf.: http://www.europhysicsnews.com/full/26/article4/article4.html
Sometimes brilliance refers to spectral radiance of laser sources,
especially from the german origin, where "Brillanz" is a unit of brightness
combined with spectrally narrow-ness.
