Count Alexander is the ultimate
storyteller of Royal Crown jewels. With his
larger than life personality weighted down
by his own jewels, together with his private royal
crown jewel display, can transfer anyone back in
time. Stories, together with the actual replicas
of these jewels, include the famous Hope Diamond
Necklace which brought death to all who owned this
cursed and largest blue diamond.
The Affaire of The Queen's diamond necklace, for
which the innocent Queen Marie Antoinette of France
lost her throne and her head, started the French
Revolution. The collection includes other famous
diamonds of which there are 20 in all, hand crafted
of Russian Cubic Zirconia. All attendees can see
them close up and even carefully handle them with
provided white cotton gloves.
Count Alexander's jewel lectures are not only
fascinating but together with the use of his collection
makes one feel enchanted and beautiful like the
jewels themselves. Their has never been a jeweller
like him before when he holds the size 3 diamond
Cinderella Slipper in his white cotton gloved hand
and placing a tiara on a lady's head waving
the diamond Magic Fairy wand over her head, so
that she may make a secret wish.
Other famous diamond stories tell us for example,
that the Crown of the Queen of Bavaria xxx was
reset on the order of King Ludwig of Bavaria but
never worn by his future bride.
Some of the famous tiaras of Queen Elisabeth II
of England, actually named the "Unlucky
Spoils of Russia", include the tiara that
Queen Elisabeth gave to the late Princess of Wales
as her wedding gift.
The largest diamond in the world is that of Queen
Mary of England. She wore on her bodice a 530 carat
pear shaped diamond that she named "Granny's
chips".
And of course there is "Le de la mer" or "The
Heart of the Ocean", worn for the film
Titanic. It actually is the second onex for the
first necklace lies 13.000 feet down in the ocean
- on or very near the actual wreck of the Titanic.
The beautiful but not loved 40 carat marquee Lesotho
III diamond, given as a gift by Aristotle Onassis
to Jackie Kennedy in 1968 when she agreed to marry
him. She only worn it twice, since then the diamond
never saw the light of day again, kept in a
bank vault in New York.
The Empress Fara Diba of Persia's (Iran) diamond
pear shaped earrings are over 90 carats. It
caused a scandal and outrage from the Revolutionaries;
she left the earrings behind when she fled from
her country.
These fascinating stories could go on and on.
