There is also the case of the «Vyne» ring, which was stolen and found in a plowed field in England, which was succeeded to the owners of the estate.

Likewise, the “hope” diamond served as an accessory to adorn the forehead of a Hindu idol; being then robbed by a priest who was tortured and condemned for said act. After this, it passed into the hands of a smuggler, who sold it, but suffered a terrible accident that led to his death. Next, it came into the hands of the French King Louis XIV, who made certain size adjustments to it, enjoying it only until it was stolen during the French Revolution; therefore dragged the death of King Philip and Marie Antoinette.
However, the story does not end THERE; His influence managed to destroy a list of owners who for a time ended up dead due to murders; others fell into ruins, affected by addictions, family problems and even losing their minds.
