American Jane Mitchell is a jewel collector. She heard one of Dom Pedro’s owners wanted to cut it up. So she and her husband decided to buy the entire stone themselves.
“We had no desire to hold on to it privately. We felt it should strike awe in as many people as could be because that’s how we felt when we looked at it.”
That is why they gave the Dom Pedro to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. Over seven million people visited the museum last year. Many came to see the Hope Diamond. Now they have another beautiful reason to come.
