About the Kohinoor Diamond

The name Kohinoor means “Mountain of Light.” The ancient Kohinoor Diamond is a 105-carat diamond discovered in India and worn by generations of Indian and Persian rulers. The famous diamond inspired passion and pride. The story is that in 1739, one of the Shah of Iran’s consorts said, “If a strong man should take five stones and throws one north, one south, one east and one west, and the last straight up into the air, and the space between be filled with gold and gems, only that would equal the value of the Kohinoor.” Today, the Kohinoor Diamond is part of the Crown Jewels of England.
