DIAMONDS
PART NINE
Conclusion
FAMOUS
DIAMONDS ,
of the WORLD
The history of famous
diamonds is a fascinating tale
in which history, romance,
and le&end are closely in-
terwoven. Great diamonds
have often served as the
ransom and • gifts of kings,
have been the cause of
disastrous wars, and the
overthrow of dynasties. Many
of the stories go back into
history, and it is difficult at
times to distinguish between
fact and legend. .
Many diamonds are famous
because of their size, others
because of colour, cut or
perfection. Perhaps the
greatest factor which
stimulates interest in these
famous diamonds is the im-
portance attached to them by
their royal owners. The Orloff
is inseparably associated with
the lost grandeur and
romance of the Russian
Empire, and the largest of all,
the Cullinan, will always be
associated with the largest of
all empires, Great Britain.
Diamonds and other gems
were the most important
collateral in the treasuries of
nations and individuals.
The Kohinoor, the most
famous diamond in'the world,
has .a long and tragic history
and the longest known
pedigree. Of all gems, it has
been endowed with the
greatest imaginary powers.
When the Kohinoor was
brought to England it weighed
186 carats. It was re -cut and
now is the central stone in the
Queen's State Crown.
A diamond, with any tinge of
blue is exceedingly rare,
especially when a rich deep
colour is combined With great
brilliance, as in the Hope
Diamond. It is believed that
the Hope Diamond was cut
from a 67.5 carat blue
diamond in the French Crown
Jewels-. However this stone
was.stQlep and -it was not until
_ 1880 that a bYue diamorrdearrie -
on the market; the 44.5 carat
blue was bought by Henry
Thomas Hope. The last sale of
this famous gem was in 1911,
to Edward B. McLean. The
hope diamond was surrounded
by myths of bad luck. It now
rests in the Smithsonian
Institute.
The world's largest
diamond was found in 1905, the
Cullinan, weighing 3,106
carats. It was presented to
King Edward VIII, by the '
Transvaal•government. Of the
several diamonds cut the four
largest (from 63.7 - 530.20
carats) are all part of crown
jewels of England.
Many a smaller, beautiful
cut gems of today, may have
been part of one of these
larger gems, perhaps split
into smaller pieces by man.
Indeed, some diamonds may
have been recut more than
once and have actually once
been part of the Great Mogul
or some other famous
diamond of intriguing history
or mythical power.
