Try a material map?

material{
   texture{
     pigment_pattern{
       spherical color_map{
         [0.0 rgbft <1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0>]
         [0.3 rgbft <1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0>]
         [0.7 rgbft <0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0>]
         [1.0 rgbft <0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0>]
       }
     }
     texture_map{
       [0.0
         pigment{ color rgbt <0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0> }
         finish{
           ambient 0
           reflection{
             1.0, 1.0
             fresnel off
             falloff 1.0
             exponent 1.0
             metallic 0.0
           }
         }
       ]
       [1.0
         pigment{ color rgbt <0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0> }
         finish{
           ambient 0
           reflection{
             0.0, 0.0
             fresnel off
             falloff 1.0
             exponent 1.0
             metallic 0.0
           }
         }
       ]
     }
   }
}
