Hortensia Diamonds
The peach-colored, 20 carat Hortensia diamond was named after Hortense de Beauharnais, Queen of Holland, who was Josephine's daughter and the stepdaughter of Napoleon Bonaparte.
The Hortensia diamond had been part of the French Crown Jewels since Louis XIV bought it.
Along with the Regent diamond, the Hortensia is now on display at the Louvre, Paris.
