The Hope Diamond

You people must have seen the Titanic movie, which is a big Imaginary diamond in it, it was inspired from where the same blue diamond whose name became famous as the heart of ocean. Can you tell now? Come on, it doesn't matter, but if I tell you that this big blue diamond is inspired by some diamond of India itself, then will you believe it probably not.

The name of this diamond is actually the hope diamond. And this diamond was extracted from the idol of Lord Kartikeya of India itself. But do you know that those who had this diamond were either torn apart by the dogs or shot or beheaded or drowned or became victims of starvation. This diamond was considered responsible for the suicide and madness of the people. And this is because the hope diamond is a cursed diamond. This diamond of 45.52 carat is not known how many people were with, how many thrones, how many kings were adorning the crown. But at the same time, this diamond was also responsible for the deaths of very famous people, now it cannot be called a coincidence because the one who got this diamond only created havoc. However, there will be hardly any lady on earth who does not like diamond. But this diamond is not worth wearing at all.

Its story begins about 1 billion years ago. About 100 miles below the Earth, primal forces pressurized the carbon and turned it into a crystal. With a simple process, the structure of the diamond was about to happen that an element named boron was slowly found in it, due to which the color of this diamond became blue or it can be said that the dark ocean became blue. At that time, what did India also know that a big diamond was being pulled towards them. At that time India was considered to be the only source of diamonds in the whole world. And for this reason a French merchant named Jean-Baptists decided to cross 6 seas and come to India. The weight of that diamond which came out of Kollur mine was about 112 caret. And one day that diamond disappeared from India, it was rumored that the French merchant took out that diamond from the eyes of Kartikeya Bhagwan and took it to France with him.

On reaching France, he sold that diamond to the King Louis XIV of there at a very good price. Later it was found that the French merchant who had stolen this diamond was torn by the dogs, later it came to the diamond king Louis XVI. At that time a revolution was gaining momentum in France. In which the queen of Louis was murdered, her head was beheaded by the rebels. And at that time also Queen was wearing a diamond. In 1792, this diamond was named french blue and it was stolen in the same year. For many years no trace of this diamond could be found and it got lost somewhere in the history.

After about two decades, this diamond again came in front of the people and at this time it was in the hands of a diamond merchant named Daniel in England who had cut it to about 60 carats. Till 1839 it remained with the very famous and rich family hopes family of London. And perhaps this is why this diamond got its name as the hope diamond. But this diamond did not even leave the hope family, due to one death and bankruptcy in the hope family, he had to go back to his village. And in the end, with the death of the last member of the Hope family, this diamond was once again lost in the dark.

In 1920, it was again seen with Pier Cartier. McLean bought this diamond from Cartier for about 180,000 dollars. At the same time his 9-year-old girl dies in a car accident. And after this it went into the hands of many merchants and kings, but it is also true that the one who got this diamond in his hands saw someone dying a very bad death. Later declaring this diamond as cursed and kept in the museum, at this time this diamond is in SMITHSONIAN NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, WASHINGTON, DC and at this time the value of this diamond has been estimated to be around $ 200 to 300 million.

It is not at all that the only hope diamond is cursed. Apart from this, there are many other diamonds which are cursed a lot. You will be surprised to hear that Kohinoor diamond, black prince ruby ​​are also involved in this race however Regent Diamond, the Sancy yellow diamond, the Delhi Purple Sapphire, the Star of India sapphire, and the Black Orlov diamond. All these diamonds are different but their story is almost the same.

Generally, all these diamonds were born on the land of India, the only problem was that they were also taken out from the idols of other Gods like the hope diamond. Where it was placed on the crown or to enhance the glory of any corner of the palace. Over the centuries, these diamonds were cut and cut for their personal benefit. But what happened after doing all this, all these diamonds were locked under the glass in the museum, just like they were buried under the earth many billions of years ago. And with these words I end this story.
