Pearl Tear Crown (TheCambridgeLover's KnotTiara)

The crown of the tears of the British royal family is called "TheCambridgeLover's KnotTiara", originally belonging to Queen Amaria of the Greek king. In 1825, the son of the Bavarian King Ludwig I, who later inherited the Greek king's throne, made a crown for his wife, Amalia. However, this beautiful crown seems to have been cursed, and the King Otto was diagnosed with severe mental illness shortly after sending the crown. The poor Greek queen could not accept this cruel fact, and she washed her face with tears all day long. This crown full of king's love also got a tragic name because of the queen's melancholy: Pearl tears. Legend has it that women who have "pearl tears" will not have a good emotional home.

Pearl Tear Crown (TheCambridgeLover's KnotTiara)

In 1914, Queen Mary ordered the jeweler to copy the crown according to the crown of her grandmother, the Duchess of Cambridge. On July 29, 1981, the Prince of Wales Charles and Diana held a grand wedding at Buckingham Palace. At the ceremony, Queen Elizabeth II gave the crown of "Tears of Pearls" to Princess Diana of Wales. However, a series of subsequent facts seem to confirm the previous legend that Diana's marriage with Charles was full of pain and tears from the beginning, and finally Diana died unexpectedly.

Hope Diamond (TheHopeDiamond)

The prototype of the famous "Sea Star" in the movie "Titanic" is actually a blue diamond called The Hope Diamond. It is the largest blue diamond in the world, weighing 45.52 carats. Legend has it that the predecessor of this diamond is a sacred object of a temple in India. It is one of the eyes of the god of the great god Rama, and it weighed 112 carats. In 1642, the French adventurer Tavenier stole it overnight, and after the discovery of the temple priest the next day, he cursed and cursed everyone who had a selfish desire to own a diamond. Later, Tavinier brought the diamond back to France and dedicated it to King Louis XIV of France. The king sealed him an official position and rewarded him with a large sum of money as a reward for the diamond. As a result, a spell was opened and the luck began to come to those who had contacted the diamond. Tavini’s property was so beautifully made by his son that he was penniless when he was 80 years old and had to go to India again to seek new wealth, but he was bizarrely killed by wild dogs. On the other side, Louis XIV cut the diamond into a 69.03 carat and gave it to the mistress, Mrs. Montesta. The mistress soon lost her favor, and Louis XIV, who had only worn the diamond once, suddenly died of smallpox.

In 1792, the diamond was stolen and the thieves brought it to the United Kingdom. Because the diamond was too big to be used, it was forced to take it to debt and starve to the streets. After the new master reduced it to its current size, after twenty years of legal aging, he gave it to King George IV. Soon after, the seller committed suicide, and George IV fell into financial crisis. I had to secretly sell the diamonds. In 1824, the famous banker Henry Philip Hope bought the diamond and named it with his last name Hope. Since "Hope" means "hope", the diamond is named "Drill of Hope." Henry Hope died on December 4, 1862, and his wife inherited his property. On March 31, 1884, Mrs. Hope died, and his grandson, Henry Francis Hope Pellham Clinton Hope, and Duke of Newcastle, received the diamond in 1887. But according to the will, he can't sell it. The Duke squandered and went bankrupt. In 1894 he married American actress MayYohe and later earned a living by his wife. In 1896, the Duke went bankrupt and had to apply for an auction of diamonds.

After more than a decade of reversal, the spiritual blue diamonds always wandered between different masters. The successor of the Washington Post, Evelyn Walsh McLean, bought the diamond, and her The son was killed in a car accident. The husband collapsed and died in a mental hospital. His daughter also took sleeping pills. In 1933, the Washington Post was forced to change hands because of poor management. It wasn't until 1949 that jeweler Harry Winston bought it that it seemed to end the long-standing mysterious curse of diamonds. In 1958, Harry Winston decided to donate the "Drill of Hope" to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, and let it be publicly displayed in the Harry Winston Gallery in its museum for a long time. The beauty of “Drilling” has been shared with the world since then. After 20 years, Winston died of heart disease.

Mountain of Light (Kon-I-Noor)

There is a passage in the Hindu scriptures: "Whoever owns it has a whole world; whoever owns it has to bear the catastrophe it brings. Only God or a woman who owns it will not suffer any punishment. "This is the one of the world's oldest and most famous diamonds - the Mountain of Light." For 700 years, it has been like a mirror of history, which has led to countless bloody slaughter and battles, and many monarchs who own it will eventually escape.

Legend has it that the Mountain of Light has a history of 3,000 years, but this statement lacks strong evidence. It is now generally believed that it was discovered in 1655 at the Coral mine in the Golconda region of India. In the 16th century, the founder of the Mughal dynasty in India became the first monarch to have a mountain of light. After he got the mountain of light, he hid it in the peacock throne that symbolizes power and announced to the world that he had received an invaluable treasure. However, shortly after getting the mountain of light, Bae's son launched a coup, put Baer into the cage, and boarded the Peacock throne. Babel became the first king to suffer bad luck after receiving the Mountain of Light.

Time flies, the 5th generation emperor Shah Jahan, who is famous for building the Taj Mahal, became the new owner of the Mountain of Light. Since then, the palace has become a battlefield for power and profit. Shah Jahan’s dozen sons have not hesitated to fight for the throne and this valuable diamond. One of the sons forced the father to walk down the peacock throne with a blade of blood filled with brothers. Shah Jahan was later placed under house arrest in the red palace of the royal palace of Agra, the old capital of the Mughal dynasty.

The Mountain of Light has been hiding in the royal palace of Mughal for nearly a hundred years. It was not until 1738 that the Persian king Nadi defeated the Indian capital Delhi in one fell swoop and received this rare treasure. When he lifted the mountain of light to the top of his head, a colorful light illumined the night sky, and Nadi blurted out: 'Ke-I-Nor! 'The meaning of the mountain of light, since then the name is world-renowned. After getting the diamond for 3 months, Nadier inexplicably got edema disease, which made him lose his mind. He stabbed the eyes of his five sons. In 1747, he was assassinated by the enemy while he was asleep. After Nadier's death, his descendants also inherited his cruel personality, the Persian royal family fell into a series of fratricidal killings, almost every monarch died.

After several twists and turns, the mountain of light fell into the hands of Singer, the heir to the throne of Sikh. He had already heard the bloody history of the mountain of light, fearing that the same fate would come to himself and decided to follow the ancient scriptures. Or a woman who owns it will not suffer any punishment', giving the diamond to a woman - Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. On the way to the United Kingdom, the diamonds were also bad luck. When the cargo ship was just set sail, cholera broke out and many people died. The tsunami was also encountered on the way. After a few weeks, the diamonds were handed over to the Queen. Since then, "Mountain of Light" has become the most eye-catching diamond on the cross of the crown of the Queen of England. ”

Since then, it has been set as the main diamond in the cross on the top of Queen Mary and the crown of Queen Elizabeth. Here, the "Mountain of Light" seems to be really quiet, but given its bloody history, the British royal family has carefully placed it in the London Museum, but the legend of several generations.

Queen's Necklace (TheQueen's Necklace)

This string of "the queen's necklace" that once triggered the French Revolution is a treasure that has been soaked in blood and tears. In 1772, Louis XV decided to give his beloved mistress Jeanne Bécu (Comtessedu Barry) a special gift worth 2,000,000 livres. He ordered the Paris jeweler Boehmer and Bassange to create a diamond necklace that would be more magnificent than all other necklaces. It takes a few years and a lot of money to collect the right diamonds. Later, Louis XV died in smallpox, and Mrs. Dubali was expelled from the court by the new king.

The necklace is made up of many large diamonds with elaborate knots, pendants and tassels. The jeweler hopes to sell the necklace to Marie Antoinette, the new queen of France. In fact, Louis XVI had wanted to give it to his wife in 1778, but the queen himself refused to save the national expenses. Because this necklace is too expensive, the jeweler is facing bankruptcy, so he has to sell this giant treasure equivalent to a warship. At this time, a liar who claimed to be Jeanne de Valois-Saint-Rémy built a plan to use this necklace to gain wealth, potential power and royal sponsorship. The liar, Jeanne, was the mistress of the former French ambassador to Vienna, Roan. The cardinal was not liked by the Queen because of the rumors of the mother of Queen Marie Antoinette and the Queen of Austria, Maria Teresia.

At that time, the cardinal was eager to regain the Queen's favor to achieve the desire to become the king's prime minister. Jeanna took the fabricated queen's loan, persuaded the card to pay for the "helping queen" to buy it, but she took this expensive necklace to escape, until the bishop of Rouen sought debts from the queen, the matter was really clear. The angry queen asked for the interrogation of the card, and the queen was not loved by the French nationals. This incident was even more dissatisfied. The reputation of the French Bourbon dynasty collapsed rapidly within a few years, and various vicious rumors made her a burden for her husband. She did not get rid of the public's impression that she was extravagant and guilty of fraud. Four years later, the French Revolution broke out. Eight years later, Louis XVI and his wife both died on the guillotine. The string of diamond necklaces that destroyed the Bourbon dynasty was split and sold in the same year, and only copies have been kept in the museum.
