GEC, Peerage, Newcastle, p. 537. P>1660: Possible origins of The Hope Diamond, which is "possibly cursed". It came from the Golconda region of Andrha Pradesh, southern central India. It came into the possession of French adventurer, Jean Baptiste Tavernier. It (bluer in colour, uncit, large and about 112 3/16h old carats, or 110.5 modern carats, about 22.1 grams. In 1668 Tavernier was granted an audience with Louis XIV, FRances Sun King. who bought about 1000 gemstones from the adventurer, including The Hope Diamond. It came into the possession of French adventurer, Jean Baptiste Tavernier. It was stolen during the French Revolution, but turned up, recut, 20 years and one day after its theft in London, in then "squabbled over by greedy British aristocrats. At one point it was held by London jeweller Daniel Eliason. In 1824 it was sold to Henry Philip Hope, heir to a banking fortune who was born on Holland, and who renamed the diamond. His sister-in-law, Louisa Hope, would wear it at soirees she hosted. Hope died in 1839 and left the diamond to his three nephews, one of whom was Henry, a failed politician. In 1861, Henry's daughter Henrietta married the Earl of Lincoln ("he a gambler, and from a family of drunks, drug addicts, layabouts and the odd transvestite"). In 1884 the diamond went to the Earl's second son by Henrietta Hope, Lord Francis Pelham-Clinton Hope, quite a playboy-peer who by the 1890s was in serious debt. He married May Yohe (Madcap May), daughter of a saloon keeper from Pennsylvania, a music hall actress. She took up an affair with a US dry-goods millionaire, Putnam Bradlee Strong. Lord Francis's debts reached $5 million, but he had won a right to sell The Hope Diamond. It was bought by Simon Frankel, a New York dealer. Pater it was perhaps in the hands of Selim Habib, a Paris dealer, then with a French syndicate, then in 1910 it was sold to Parisian jewellers, Cartier Brothers. (May Yohe once starred in a silent movie serial, "The Hope Diamond Mystery" and produced a book, The Mystery of the Hope Diamond.) Cartiers sold it to Evalyn Walsh McLean, a daughter of Irish migrants who'd struck it gold-rich in the 1890s Colorado goldfields. She married Ned McLean (d.1941), heir to newspaper, Washington Post, whose debts became so large the newspaper had to be sold. The Hope Diamond was found stuck in the back of Evalyn's bedside radio when she died, then stored in a bank vault. In 1949 it was bought by New York jeweller, Harry Winston, who in 1958 donated it to Smithsonian Institute, which has had it ever since. (See recent book, Hope: Adventures of a Diamond. Simon and Schuster, 2003.) Since 1958 it has been in the care of the Smithsonian Institute in USA. Several other large and famed diamonds are the Sancy, Koh-i-Noor (Mountain of Light) and Star of Africa.
