& other blue diamonds By Ray Lundin
The famous Hope Diamond is the centerpiece of the gem collection at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. The Hope diamond (45.52 carats) is the world’s largest deep blue diamond. It is known for its striking blue color and its fascinating history of bringing bad luck to its owners. The diamond’s blue color was caused by trace amounts of boron in the stone. It has been stolen and recovered, sold and resold, cut and recut, disappeared and reappeared as a different cut stone. Through it all, the value of the diamond has increased. It is sometimes called the “Killer Stone.” Smithsonian gem curator Jeffrey Post explained that researchers using computer analysis have traced the origin of the diamond and concluded it was cut from a larger stone that was once part of the crown jewels of France. Post said researchers using sketches from pre-Revolutionary France, scientific studies of the French crown jewels and computer models helped to confirm the Hope Diamond as originating with a 115-carat stone found in India in 1668. It was first cut Indian style. A French diamond merchant named
Jean Tavernier purchased the diamond in India. Tavernier took the diamond to France and sold it to Louis XIV, king of France, in 1668. Tavernier, however, was killed by wild dogs during another trip to India (the first bad luck attributed to the owners of the diamond). Five years after Louis XIV bought it, he had the royal goldsmith cut it into a heart-shaped 67 carats. The blue diamond was then called “The Royal French Blue.” In 1774 Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette inherited the French Blue and she wore it often. During the French Revolution (1789-1799), Louis XVI and Marie Antinette were beheaded via the guillotine. In the turbulent years of the French revolution, the heart-cut blue diamond, while under guard in the French Treasure House, was stolen along with all the French Crown jewels. Some of the gems taken in this robbery were recovered, but not the blue diamond. The blue diamond was believed to have been sold in Spain and there cut into three smaller stones. The Goya portrait of Queen Marie Louisa painted in 1799 shows her wearing a deep blue diamond cut into 44.5 carats of rounded oval. It is said that the stolen Royal French Blue was recut to its present size by
