The legends and myths (and the curses!) associated with the most famous jewels in history.

Hope Diamond
The Hope Diamond, named for its 19th century owners, is arguably the best-known diamond in the world.

It's widely believed what became the Hope Diamond was cut from a 115-carat blue diamond sold to King Louis XIV from a mine in India.

Legend has it that death and misfortune plague the diamond's owner, claiming notable figures such as Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette along with many jewelers and socialites.

Most of the stories surrounding supposed owners of the diamond have been proven historically inaccurate.

The 45.42-carat diamond currently resides in the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History.Source: Reuters
