Speaking of birthstones in December, it's actually interesting to know that girls prefer them, but these stones also have a lot to say, which is of great significance anyway, so some people ask, the birthstones in December are all divided into December, so what is the birthstone in April? Will the birthstone in April be Dia? Let's look at these problems together.
The birthstone in April corresponds to the diameter. Diamonds symbolize chastity and purity. This is the 75th anniversary gem and the birthstone of April.
"Star of Hope"
Around 1642 AD, a 1 12-carat diamond found in India was embedded in the statue to protect the gods. But maybe it was the vibration of the gem that made the gods close their eyes. Since then, with the strange and tragic fate of "Blue Hope", all those who own it are doomed from both human and financial aspects.
A monk was found stolen and burned alive. Later, it changed hands several times and was bought by the French emperor Louis XIV. It was ground into a diamond weighing 69.03 carats. However, he only wore it once and soon died of smallpox. Later, the French royal princess Louis XVI and the queen were all killed because of this gem. Stolen from the French Ministry of Finance in 792, 1830 reappeared.
But by this time it had been ground to a diameter of 45.5 carats. A Dutch jeweler tried his best to get this gem, but his son stole it and the jeweler committed suicide in a rage. 19 1 1 year, postmaster general markland bought this gem for 15 1 ten thousand dollars. Two years later, my son died in a car accident, markland died, and my daughter committed suicide by taking sleeping pills.
Finally, Winston, another wealthy and famous American jeweler, bought this gem at 1958. He gave it as a precious gift to the Smithsonian Museum in Washington for visitors to visit. Since entering the museum, the nightmare of "blue hope" has finally ended. It seems that everyone must share the beautiful things.
