The Idol's eye is my favorite of all of these famous Jewels.

70.2 carats

A flattened pear shaped stone the size of a bantam’s egg. another famous diamond that was once set in the eye of an idol before it was stolen. Legend also had it that it was given as a ransom for Princess Rasheetah by the Sheik of Kashmir to the Sultan of Turkey who had abducted her.


Here are a few others as well.


The Arkansas

The Blue Hope

The British Crown Jewels

The Centenary Diamond

The Chrysanthemum

The Dresden Green

The Eureka

The Hortense

The Idol's Eye

The Jubilee

The Kahn Canary


The Kimberly

The Niarchos

The Oppenheimer

The Orloff

The Regent

The Star of Africa

The Star of Sierra Leone

The Sultan of Morrocco

The Taylor-Burton

The Tiffany

The Transvall Blue.

Some of these have a touch of romance attached and every women that I know enjoys a little bit of romance.


Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
