I believe everyone was swept away last week by Beckham's eldest son, David Beckham, 23, marrying Nicola Peltz, a 27-year-old American actress and billionaire.
The whole wedding cost 4 million US dollars (25 million yuan), in addition to the bride Nicola's Valentino high-end wedding dress is very attractive, the most eye-catching can be said to be the diamond at the wedding.
Brooklyn's marriage proposal eggs are worth £350,000.
This emerald-cut diamond is 5 carats and paired with a diamond ring arm, which looks elegant and retro, and can be said to be very dazzling.
But it's not so good to look at the other diamonds of this wedding.
On the wedding day, the earrings worn by the bride are also very eye-catching, and the single diamond has more than 8 carats visually, which can only be said to be worthy of the hundreds of millions of gold of "luxury and inhumanity".
And as one of the vane figures in the fashion industry. Sister-in-law Bei's dress on the day was also very eye-catching.
She wore her own victoria Beckham's silver mop dress for Spring /Summer 2022, which resembled moonlight reflected on the sea at night.
She grabbed her eyeballs with a diamond necklace around her neck, and the center stone was pear-shaped and 21.5 carats, a gift Beckham gave to her sister-in-law on the day of her son's baptism in Brooklyn, and it looked simple and atmospheric, worth about $2 million.
But on that day, the bride's mother, 67-year-old former fashion model Claudia Heffner Peltz, crushed the audience, in a Versace couture dress.
Not only is the frozen age amazingly good, but the giant diamond necklace worn around the neck is even more amazing.
Everyone has speculated that this large pear-shaped diamond is the "Star of the East" that has disappeared for a long time!
Today, So Sister will come to talk to you about the past and present lives of this giant diamond.
The exact origin of the "Eastern Star" is unknown, but it is reported that it may have originated in one of five groups of mines located in southern India and the eastern side of the central Deccan Plateau.
In the mid-17th century, the French gem merchant Tavernier bought a 157.25 ct rough diamond in India, and he later cut it into a 94.78 ct pear-shaped diamond, which is the "Star of the East".
It has changed hands several times, and the earliest recorded owner is Turkish Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II, who is said to have decorated his turban with the diamond.
In 1909, Abdul Hamid II was deposed, and some of his jewels appeared in Paris and were sold, and the "Star of the Orient" was one of these jewels.
Pierre Cartier, a French jeweler and third-generation heir to Cartier, acquired the diamond.
Around this time, the daughter of American millionaire and mining magnate Thomas Walsh and American celebrity Evelyn Walsh married Edward Beale Mclean, heir to the Washington Post.
The newlyweds traveled to Europe and the Middle East for a three-month honeymoon, and while visiting Cartier in Paris, Pierre Cartier showed Madame Evelyn the diamond, the "Star of the Orient" set in a necklace made up of 34 carats of hexagonal jadeite and underneath a pearl.
Mrs. Evelyn was so impressed with the diamond that she decided to buy it for $200,000 despite her husband's objections.
Three years later, in 1911, when Madame Yveline and her husband visited Paris again, she bought the infamous diamond for $180,000, the 45.54 ct blue diamond "Hope," the prototype of the diamond in the movie Titanic.
According to legend, this is a cursed gem that brings bad luck to its owner, and it has changed hands several times, and its owners have died mysteriously one after another.
At the same time, she commissioned Cartier to make the two diamonds into a pendant.
This became her favorite ornament, and she wore it on almost every occasion she attended.
The doom and curse of "hope" seemed to have found her in her later years.
She began to run short of money and had to pawn jewelry several times.
Her son died in a car accident when he was nine years old.
Her husband ran away with another woman, ran out of their money, drank heavily, and died in a mental hospital in 1941.
The family's Washington Post went bankrupt and she was forced to sell some of her properties.
In 1946, her daughter died of a sleeping pill overdose at the age of 25.
The following year, Mrs. Evelyn died, and her collection of jewelry, including the Hope diamond and the Oriental Star, was sold in 1949 to pay off her debts.
New York jeweler Harry Winston bought Mrs. Evelyn's jewelry, including a 45.54 carat "Hope" diamond, a 94.8 carat "Oriental Star" diamond, a 15-carat "Southern Star" diamond, a 9-carat green diamond and a 31-carat McLean diamond.
In 1951, Harry Winston sold the "Star of the Orient" diamond to King Farouq of Egypt, who found the diamond as beautiful as the eyes of his newlywed queen and officially gave it the name that would be passed down to posterity: the Star of the Orient.
Unfortunately, Harry Winston did not receive the full amount paid by the king for the diamonds, and the king was overthrown in 1952.
Harry Winston had to await an investigation and ruling by a government-appointed legal commission that disposed of the former Royal Assets and the Oriental Star in a Safe deposit at a Swiss bank. Years passed, and the bank finally returned the diamond to Harry Winston.
In 1969, Harry Winston sold the Oriental Star again to an anonymous buyer who asked for the diamonds to be re-set and paired with two pear-shaped emeralds to create a V-shaped necklace.
In 1978, Harry Winston celebrated its 50th anniversary, and "Stars of the East" was also featured in a commemorative exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
In 1992, Harry Winston re-purchased the "Star of the Orient" diamond from its owner, the last time the diamond appeared in public view and has since disappeared.
The pear-shaped giant diamond that now appears on the neck of Beckham's mother is most likely the long-dormant "Star of the East" in terms of style and size.
Whether it is a legendary diamond is still hotly debated, there is still no conclusion.
But in any case, the sparkle of this giant diamond is enough to attract many eyes and become a huge highlight at the wedding.
Can't help but feel that the C position of diamonds in jewelry is unshakable.
