Finally, here in the Jewel House, we have the Crown Jewels. These include crowns, swords, other weapons, scepters, and even ceremonial spoons.
One of the most famous items included in the Crown Jewels is the Koh-i-noor:
It was once known as the largest diamond in the world and was claimed by the British Royal family in 1877 when India was claimed as a colony (the diamond had been residing there.) The diamond itself serves as a symbol for the wealth and power that the British Empire wielded before it lost the majority of its colonies after World War II.
The British Royal family does not have as much power today as it did during the eras we've been discussing, but the Crown Jewels still serve as signs of its lavishness, power, and glory.
