The Most Cursed Gems Throughout History

When it comes to history's most cursed items, it's hard to think of anything more appropriate than cursed gemstones and jewels. This ain't just something that you see in the movies, folks. Sometimes, cursed gems are real.

The Bahia Emerald, the Black Prince's Ruby, the Black Orlov — these are all real gems with wildly fantastical names, and when you look at history, you can see all the tell-tale signs of tragedy that tend to surround them.

Some of these gems have been around for hundreds of years, and they've accumulated generations' worth of dark lore — and in some cases, a body count. These are history's most cursed gems.
