It sank on April 15, 1912 off the coast of Newfoundland in the North Atlantic. Over 1,500 of the 2,240 passengers and crew lost their lives in the disaster. It remains a cautionary tale of the arrogance of builders than their creation could ever be flawless or impervious to harm.

Timeline (See main article: Titanic Timeline) The White Star Line(See main article: The White Star Line)The White Star Shipping Line was founded in 1850 to take advantage of an increase in trade following the discovery of gold in Australia.In 1867, the White Star Shipping Line was purchased by Thomas Ismay and set up to rival Cunard in Trans-Atlantic passenger traffic. Thomas’s son, Bruce, became a partner in the firm and took over as company director in 1899 when his father died.In 1902 the company was bought by wealthy American, J Pierpoint Morgan. Ismay retained his position within the firm as managing director. Morgan’s money meant that the company could build large luxury liners to attract the wealthy passengers.In 1907 Ismay suggested that the company build two liners which were heavier, bigger and more luxurious than any other ship in the World. They were to be called Olympic and Titanic. If these were successful a third, Gigantic, later renamed Brittanic, would follow.Construction(See main article: Titanic Construction: Building the Unsinkable Ship)The Titanic construction took place in Belfast by the shipbuilding company Harland and Wolff. The company was owned by Lord Pirrie, a friend of Bruce Ismay, managing director of the White Star Line (pictured below, left). The chief designer of the Titanic was his son-in-law, Thomas Andrews.Construction of the Titanic began in 1909. Harland and Wolff had to make alterations to their shipyard (larger piers and gantries) to accommodate the giant liners, Titanic and her sister ship Olympic. The two ships were to be built side-by-side.The giant gantries constructed by Harland and WolffWatertight CompartmentsTitanic was constructed with sixteen watertight compartments. Each compartment had doors that were designed to close automatically if the water level rose above a certain height. The doors could also be electronically closed from the bridge. Titanic was able to stay afloat if any two compartments or the first four became flooded. Shortly after Titanic hit the iceberg it was revealed that the first six compartments were flooded.BoilersThere were twenty-four double ended boilers and five single ended boilers which were housed in six boiler rooms. The double ended boilers were 20 feet long, had a diameter of 15 feet 9 inches and contained six coal burning furnaces. The single ended boilers were 11 feet 9 inches long with the same diameter and three furnaces. Smoke and waste gasses were expelled through three funnels.FunnelsTitanic’s four funnels were constructed away from the site and were then transported to the shipyard for putting on the Titanic. Only three of the funnels were used to expel smoke and waste gasses. The fourth was added to make the ship look more powerful.PropellersTitanic had three propellers which were powered by steam. The rotation of the propellers powered the ship through the sea.Titanic was launched in 1911. The next ten months were spent completing the interior of the ship. Details and pictures of the interior can be viewed on the layout page of this site. The total cost of the RMS Titanic was $7.5 million (1912).Amenities(See main article: Titanic Amenities)The Crow’s NestThe Crow’s nest was used by the ship’s lookouts. It was from here, at 11.40 pm on April 15 1912, that lookouts Frederick Fleet and Reginald Lee first spotted the iceberg that caused the Titanic to sink.Officers’ QuartersThe Titanic’s officer quarters were located just below the boat deck so that they could quickly reach the bridge in case of emergency. Captain Smith retired to the officers’ quarters about an hour before the ship hit the iceberg.The BridgeThe Bridge was the place where the ship was operated from. There was always a senior officer on the bridge and it was first officer Murdock who ordered the Titanic ‘hard a starboard’ when the iceberg was spotted.First Class Grand StaircaseFirst Class Grand StaircaseThe two first class staircases were very grand indeed. Over the top of both were glass domes which allowed sunlight to pass through.Marconi/Wireless RoomMarconi/Wireless RoomThe two wireless operators, Harold Bride and John Philips were employed to send telegrams on behalf of the passengers. They also received and sent messages to other ships. It was here that the messages warning of icebergs were received on the afternoon of 14th April 1912 and the SOS messages were sent when it was realised that the Titanic would sink.GymnasiumGymnasiumThe Titanic’s gymnasium had all the latest exercise equipment – a bicycle, rowing machine and electric horse. Separate sessions were available for men, women and children.First Class StateroomsFirst Class StateroomsThe first class staterooms were luxuriously furnished with curtained beds and tables and chairs. The most expensive even had their own private balcony.A la Carte RestaurantThe Titanic’s a la carte restaurant served the finest food. Passengers could reserve tables and book areas for private parties.First Class Smoking RoomThe First Class smoking room was open for most of the day. Passengers could purchase the most luxurious cigarettes and tobacco here.Cafe ParisienCafe ParisienThis cafe was designed to look like a Paris street cafe and the waiters were French.Third Class Smoking RoomThird Class Smoking RoomThis was one of the leisure rooms provided for the use of third class passengers.Second Class StateroomsSecond Class StateroomsSecond class staterooms were occupied by up to four people. By the standards of the day they were luxurious with mahogany furniture and linoleum floors.Refrigerated CargoIn order to ensure that food served at tables was as fresh as possible, the Titanic was fitted with a refrigerated storage area. There were different areas for meat, cheese, flowers and wines and champagne.Second Class Dining RoomSecond Class Dining RoomThis large, pleasantly furnished room was where second class passengers took their meals. Food served to second class passengers was cooked in the first class kitchen.First and Second Class GalleyFood for both first and second class passengers was prepared in the same galley. There was a large ice-cream maker as well as refrigerated rooms for storing meat and perishable goods.First Class Dining RoomFirst Class Dining RoomThe First Class Dining room was beautifully decorated with a huge glass dome roof and could seat over 500 people.Third Class Dining RoomThird Class Dining RoomThis was where the third class passengers took their meals. It was said to be like second class dining rooms on other ships.BoilersBoilersThe Titanic had 24 boilers each containing 6 furnaces and 5 boilers containing 3 furnaces. Coal was burned in the boilers to power the ship and the steam and smoke was released through the four funnels.Bruce Ismay, of the White Star Line, hoped that the Titanic would make the fastest ever crossing from Southampton to New York.First Class Reception RoomFirst class passengers met in the first class reception room. They would often enjoy a cocktail together before going into dinner.Turkish BathTurkish BathThe Titanic’s turkish baths was one of the most luxurious to be found in Europe.First Class ElevatorFirst Class ElevatorThe Titanic’s four electric lifts were one of the new features that made the Titanic special. Designed for use by first and second class passengers only, they each had their own lift attendant. None of the four lift attendants survived.Swimming PoolSwimming PoolThe Titanic was on of the first ships to have a swimming pool on board. It was filled with sea water which was heated by the boilers. There were separate times for men and women.Squash CourtAs part of it’s recreational facilities for passengers, the Titanic had a full-size squash court.Because the squash court was located just below the bridge but above the watertight compartments, it was used by the ship’s officers to monitor the rise of the water.The Post OfficeThe Titanic had a fully equipped post office staffed by five mail clerks. Over three thousand mail bags were lost when the ship sank and over 7 million items of mail never reached their destination.Cargo RoomPassengers’ cargo was loaded into the cargo room by crane. Among the items lost when the Titanic sank were:     A Renault 35hp car     A Marmalade machine     50 cases of toothpaste     5 grand pianos     Four cases of opium     A jewelled copy of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Third Class BerthsThird Class berths on the Titanic were used by up to eight people. As you can see in the picture above, they slept in bunks and used a communal sink.Fireman’s PassageThis was the passage between the boilers that was used by the firemen. In the film, Rose and Jack run through the fireman’s passage to the cargo room. However, on the Titanic the fireman’s passage was on the deck below the cargo room.Crew QuartersThe Titanic had a crew of some 890 men and women of whom only 212 were saved. The crew’s quarters were located at the rear of the ship on decks D, E and F.Cargo CraneThis was a lifting device to enable large objects to be lifted onto ships. In the film Titanic, a cargo crane is seen lifting crates and a car onto the ship.Total Number Onboard(See main article: How Many People Were on the Titanic?)Exact numbers of those traveling on the Titanic is not known, but the official total of all passengers and crew is 2,229. The number of survivors varies from 701-713.The table below features a detailed breakdown of passengers in each class and the crew, and the number who survived. It is compiled from the most widely used figures for passengers and crew. The numbers are for passengers in first, second, and third class.Many are taught that in the sinking of the Titanic, third-class passengers were locked into flooding passages so as to preserve lifeboats for the first class, most famously in James Cameron’s depiction of the Titanic sinking in film. Dramatic embellishment certainly occurred, but the fact remains that first-class passengers were more likely to survive than second or third-class passengers.In terms of a percentage breakdown of number of survivors based on their class, here are the relevant statistics.     37 percent of all passengers survived     61 percent of first-class passengers survived     42 percent of second-class passengers survived     24 percent of third-class passenger survived Crew(See main article: Titanic – Crew)In all, the crew of the Titanic comprised some 885 people:      Deck Crew – Officers, Masters at arms, Storemasters and able bodied seamen.     Engineering Department – Engineers, Boilermen, Firemen and Electricians.     Victualling Department – Stewards and Galley staff.     Restaurant staff     Musicians     Post Staff Captain Edward John SmithMonthly wage: £105The maiden voyage of the Titanic was to be 62-year-old Captain Smith’s last voyage before he retired. Smith was married with a young daughter. Very little is known about his actions on the Titanic after the collision – he was last seen on the bridge of the sinking ship. Captain Smith went down with his ship and his body was never recovered.Chief Officer Henry WildeMonthly wage: £25Henry Wilde was serving as Chief Officer on the Olympic but was transferred to the Titanic for her maiden voyage. Wilde was off duty when the ship hit the iceberg. He took control of the even numbered lifeboats and was last seen trying to free the collapsible lifeboats. Wilde’s body has never been recovered.First Officer William MurdochWilliam Murdoch, 39 years old, had served on a number of White Star ships. He joined the Titanic as first officer and was on the bridge at the time of the collision and gave the order to turn the ship. He helped to load women and children into the lifeboats. He did not survive the disaster and his body was not recovered.Second Officer Charles LightollerCharles Lightoller had begun his sailing career at the age of 13 and had been involved in a shipwreck before. Lightoller was keen to load the lifeboats as quickly as possible and was still trying to free the collapsible lifeboats when Titanic sank. He was sucked under the sea but blown to the surface by air escaping from a vent. He managed to climb onto the overturned collapsible lifeboat B. He survived the disaster and as the most senior surviving officer testified at both inquiries.Third Officer Herbert PitmanHerbert Pitman was in his bunk when Titanic hit the iceberg. After helping to uncover lifeboats he was put in charge of lifeboat number 5 by William Murdoch. After Titanic had sunk, Pitman wanted to return for more passengers but others in the boat persuaded him that they would swamp the boat and they would all die. Pitman was called to give evidence during the inquiry into the disaster.Fourth Officer Joseph BoxallJoseph Boxall, aged 28, had been at sea for 13 years. After the collision Boxall helped to fire the distress rockets and to signal the nearby ship with a morse code lamp. Boxall was put in charge of lifeboat number 2 and like Pitman was persuaded not to return for more survivors after the ship had sunk. Boxall also gave evidence at the inquiry.Fifth Officer Harold LoweLowe was fast asleep when the Titanic hit the iceberg. When he eventually woke up, disturbed by noise, the ship was already at an angle. Lowe helped to load women and children into the lifeboats and took charge of lifeboat 14. After the cries and screams from the water had died down, Lowe put passengers from his lifeboat into others nearby before returning to pick up survivors. Lowe only found 4 people alive and one died before being rescued by the Carpathia. Lowe gave evidence at the inquiry.Sixth Officer James MoodyJames Moody was on duty at the time of the collision and took the phone call from Frederick Fleet warning of the iceberg. He helped to load the lifeboats and was last seen trying to launch the collapsible lifeboats. Moody did not survive the disaster.Chief Baker Charles John JoughinMonthly wage: £12After the collision Joughin fortified himself with a quantity of alcohol before throwing deckchairs into the ocean for people to hold on to. As the ship neared its final moments Joughin climbed over the stern rails and ‘rode’ the ship into the ocean. He managed to reach collapsible B and because there was no more room to climb on, spent several hours in the freezing water. Joughin survived and was rescued by the Carpathia.Lookouts Frederick Fleet and Reginald LeeMonthly wage: £5Frederick Fleet and Reginald Lee were on duty in the crow’s nest and were the first to sight the iceberg. Fleet radioed the information to the bridge. Fleet survived in lifeboat 6, Lee in lifeboat 13. Both men were called to give evidence at the inquiry.Radio Operators Jack Phillips and Harold BrideMonthly wage: £2.2s.6dThe two radio operators’ main duty was the sending of private telegrams for passengers. However, they also received seven iceberg warnings from other ships on the 14th of April. After the collision they were asked to send the distress signal CQD (Come Quick Disaster). The signal was changed to the new distress code SOS. After contacting the Carpathia both operators stayed at their post until water poured into the Marconi room. Bride survived by climbing onto the overturned hull of collapsible B. Phillips also reached collapsible B but died sometime before dawn.BandsmenMonthly wage: £4.00There were two bands on the Titanic. After the collision they grouped on the deck and played to keep the spirits of the passengers up. Some survivors state that the band played until the end and many claim that the hymn ‘Nearer my God to thee’ was the last song played. None of the bandsmen survived.First Class(See main article: The Titanic First Class: Profile of Passengers)The maiden voyage of the Titanic had attracted a number of rich passengers, which made up the Titanic first class. A first class parlour suite cost £870 while a first class berth cost £30.The following are some of the more well-known first class travellers.John Jacob AstorThe richest passenger aboard was multi-millionaire John Jacob Astor. He was travelling with his second wife, Madeleine, who was five months pregnant. JJ Astor did not survive but his wife did.Benjamin GuggenheimMillionaire Benjamin Guggenheim was travelling on the Titanic with a lady friend. His wife and family were at home in New York. Guggenheim and his manservant helped women and children into lifeboats. When all the boats had gone they changed into their best clothes and prepared to “Die like gentlemen.”Sir Cosmo and Lady Duff GordonLady Duff Gordon was a notable dress designer whose clientele included Isadora Duncan, Oscar Wilde and the British royal family. The Duff Gordons both survived but were called to testify at the court of inquiry and explain why their boat contained only twelve people. During the inquiry they were accused and cleared of bribing crew members not to allow more people into the boat.The ‘Unsinkable’ Molly BrownMolly was the daughter of a poor Irish immigrant family whose husband struck rich when mining for silver. She was travelling home to America aboard the Titanic. She survived the disaster in lifeboat number 6 and earned her nickname because she took control of the boat, kept the women rowing for seven hours and gave her furs to keep others warm.Isador and Ida StrausIsador Straus was a partner of Macey’s department store, New York. He and his wife were returning from a European holiday. Both died on the Titanic. Ida nearly got into lifeboat number 8 but refused saying to her husband “We have been living together for many years. Where you go, I go.”There were 325 first class passengers on board – 175 men, 144 women and 6 children.202 first class passengers survived – 57 men, 140 women and 5 children.Second Class(See main article: Titanic Second Class Passengers)The Titanic second class passengers enjoyed a level of luxury that rivaled that of first class on other liners. Titanic was also the first ship to have an electric elevator for second-class passengers.A second-class ticket cost about £13The following passengers are the most well known second-class travelers.Lawrence BeesleyLawrence Beesley was a public school teacher traveling to America for a holiday. He survived the disaster in lifeboat 17 and was one of the first people to publish an account of the sinking and rescue.Eva HartSeven year old Eva Hart was travelling to America with her parents. Eva’s mother had a premonition and refused to sleep at night during the voyage. Eva and her mother were saved in lifeboat 14. Eva never saw her father again.Juozas Montvila and Thomas BylesThese two men were Roman Catholic priests who conducted services for second class passengers. After the sinking they both helped other passengers to safety, heard confessions and prayed. Both died in the tragedy.Charles AldworthCharles Aldworth was first class passenger, William Carter’s chauffeur. Carter’s Renault 25 motor car was stored in the cargo hold. Charles Aldworth did not survive.There were 285 second class passengers on board – 168 men, 93 women and 24 children/118 second class passengers survived the disaster – 14 men, 80 women and 24 children.Third Class(See main article: Titanic Third Class Passengers)Many of the Titanic third class passengers traveling in rooms or steerage were emigrants traveling to the United States from Ireland and Scandinavia. In all some 33 nationalities were represented in the passenger lists. Accommodations were clearly more spartan than those for the first and second classes.A ticket for Titanic third class passage cost between £3 and £8.The information below contains statistics on some of the nationalities travelling in third class and survival accounts.IrishThere were around 120 Irish passengers on the Titanic most of whom were emigrants hoping for a better life in America. Most of them did not make it. However, Anna Kelly who had gone up on deck to investigate what had happened, survived in lifeboat 16. She later became a nun.FinnishThere were 63 Finnish passengers on the Titanic of whom only 20 survived. Mathilda Backstr was travelling to New York with her husband and brothers. She survived in one of the last lifeboats to leave – collapsible D. Her husband and brothers died.SwedishThere were about 26 Swedish passengers on board the Titanic of whom most were travelling third class. Many did not reach their destination. Mrs Hjalmar Sandstr, (Agnes Charlotta Bengtsson ) was travelling with her two daughters. They all survived the disaster in lifeboat 13.BelgiansThere were 24 Belgians on board the Titanic, 23 in third class. Two lucky Belgians, Emma Duyvejonck and Henri Van der Steen were turned away at Southampton. Only 4 Belgians, all men, survived the disaster.There were 706 third class passengers on board – 462 men, 165 women and 79 children.178 third class passengers survived the disaster – 75 men, 76 women and 27 children.Why the Titanic Was Thought Unsinkable(See main article: Why Did People Consider Titanic Unsinkable?)It seems incredible to us today that anyone could believe that 70,000 tons of steel could be unsinkable, and specifically the Titanic unsinkable, but that was the conventional wisdom of 1912 belief. The information on this page will seek to look at some of the reasons why people at the time had that belief.The shipbuilders Harland and Wolff insist that the Titanic was never advertised as an unsinkable ship. They claim that the ‘unsinkable’ myth was the result of people’s interpretations of articles in the Irish News and the Shipbuilder magazine. They also claim that the myth grew after the disaster.Yet, when the New York office of the White Star Line was informed that Titanic was in trouble, White Star Line Vice President P.A.S. Franklin announced ” We place absolute confidence in the Titanic. We believe the boat is unsinkable.” By the time Franklin spoke those words Titanic was at the bottom of the ocean. It would seem that the White Star Line President was also influenced by the ‘myth’.It is difficult to discover exactly where or when the term ‘unsinkable’ was first used. Listed below are some possibilities. titanic unsinkable mythAn extract from a White Star Line publicity brochure produced in 1910 for the twin ships Olympic and Titanic which states ??these two wonderful vessels are designed to be unsinkable. Some sources state that this wording was used on an advertising flyer while others point to an illustrated brochure. The White Star Line insist that the words used in the publicity brochure (shown above) only point to Titanic’s being designed to be unsinkable, not that it was claimed to be unsinkable.On June 1, 1911, the Irish News and Belfast Morning News contained a report on the launching of Titanic’s hull. The article described the system of watertight compartments and electronic watertight doors and concluded that Titanic was practically unsinkable.In 1911, Shipbuilder magazine published an article on the White Star Line’s sister ships Titanic and Olympic. The article described the construction of the ship and concluded that Titanic was practically unsinkable.”God himself could not sink this ship!” This quotation, made famous by Cameron’s film, is reputed to have been the answer given by a deck hand when asked if Titanic was really unsinkable.Whatever the origin of the belief, there is no doubt that people did believe Titanic to be unsinkable.Passenger Margaret Devaney said “I took passage on the Titanic for I thought it would be a safe steamship and I had heard it could not sink.”Another passenger, Thomson Beattie, wrote home “We are changing ships and coming home in a new unsinkable boat.”It was the beginning of the twentieth century and people had absolute faith in new science and technology. They believed that science in the twentieth century could and would provide answers to solve all problems.The sinking of the ‘unsinkable’ Titanic shattered much confidence in science and made people more skeptical about such fantastic claims.Five Theories on the Sinking of the Titanic(See main article: Why Did Titanic Sink? Five Theories)Numerous theories have coalesced over the years, and they each have their defenders. Some are more plausible than others, but they each have a shred of plausibility due to the complexity of maritime navigation in the North Atlantic, and steering a massive, untested ship. But why did the largest, most advanced ship of the century sink?Below are theories on why the Titanic sunk.It was Captain Smith’s faultThis was Captain E. J. Smith’s retirement trip. All he had to do was get to New York in record time. Captain E. J. Smith said years before the Titanic’s voyage, “I cannot imagine any condition which would cause a ship to founder. Modern shipbuilding has gone beyond that.” Captain Smith ignored seven iceberg warnings from his crew and other ships. If he had called for the ship to slow down then maybe the Titanic disaster would not have happened.It was the shipbuilder’s faultAbout three million rivets were used to hold the sections of the Titanic together. Some rivets have been recovered from the wreck and analysed. The findings show that they were made of sub-standard iron. When the ship hit the iceberg, the force of the impact caused the heads of the rivets to break and the sections of the Titanic to come apart. If good quality iron rivets had been used the sections may have stayed together and the ship may not have sunk.It was Bruce Ismay’s faultBruce Ismay was the Managing Director of the White Star Line and he was aboard the Titanic. Competition for Atlantic passengers was fierce and the White Star Line wanted to show that they could make a six-day crossing. To meet this schedule the Titanic could not afford to slow down. It is believed that Ismay put pressure on Captain Smith to maintain the speed of the ship.It was Thomas Andrews’ faultThe belief that the ship was unsinkable was, in part, due to the fact that the Titanic had sixteen watertight compartments. However, the compartments did not reach as high as they should have done. The White Star Line did not want them to go all the way up because this would have reduced living space in first class. If Mr Andrews, the ship’s architect, had insisted on making them the correct height then maybe the Titanic would not have sunk.It was Captain Lord’s FaultThe final iceberg warning sent to Titanic was from the Californian. Captained by Stanley Lord, she had stopped for the night about 19 miles north of Titanic. At around 11.15, Californian’s radio operator turned off the radio and went to bed. Sometime after midnight the crew on watch reported seeing rockets being fired into the sky from a big liner. Captain Lord was informed but it was concluded that the ship was having a party. No action was taken by the Californian. If the Californian had turned on the radio she would have heard the distress messages from Titanic and would have been able to reach the ship in time to save all passengers.Both America and Britain held inquiries into the disaster. both reached the almost identical conclusions.The American inquiry concluded that Captain Smith should have slowed the speed of the boat given the icy weather conditions. The British inquiry, on the other hand, concluded that maintaining speed in icy weather conditions was common practice.Both inquiries agreed on who was most at fault – Captain Stanley Lord of the Californian. The inquiries stated that if Lord had gone to Titanic’s assistance when the first rocket was seen then everyone would have been saved.Both inquiries made recommendations:     All ships must carry sufficient lifeboats for the number of passengers on board.     Ship radios should be manned 24 hours a day.     Regular lifeboat drills should be held.     Speed should be reduced in ice, fog or any other areas of possible danger. Why There Were Too Few Lifeboats(See main article: Titanic: Lifeboats)One of the factors that makes the sinking of the Titanic so memorable is the fact that lives were needlessly lost. There were not enough Titanic lifeboats on board to hold all the passengers and crew, and when the lifeboats were launched they were not filled to capacity.The information on this page represents some of the main facts relating to the lifeboats on board Titanic.At the British Inquiry into the Titanic disaster Sir Alfred Chalmers of the Board of Trade was asked why regulations governing the number of lifeboats required on passenger ships had not been updated since 1896. Sir Alfred gave a number of reasons for this (question 22875):Due to advancements that had been made in ship building it was not necessary for boats to carry more lifeboats.The latest boats were stronger than ever and had watertight compartments making them unlikely to require lifeboats at all.Sea routes used were well-travelled meaning that the likelihood of a collision was minimal.The latest boats were fitted with wireless technology.That it would be impossible for crew members to be able to load more than sixteen boats in the event of a disaster.That the provision of lifeboats should be a matter for the ship owners to consider.Sir Alfred also stated that he felt that if there had been fewer lifeboats on Titanic then more people would have been saved. He believed that if there had been fewer lifeboats then more people would have rushed to the boats and they would have been filled to capacity thus saving more people. (questions 22960/1) Facts on Titanic LifeboatsThe Titanic carried 20 lifeboats, enough for 1178 people. The existing Board of Trade required a passenger ship to provide lifeboat capacity for 1060 people. Titanic’s lifeboats were situated on the top deck. The boat was designed to carry 32 lifeboats but this number was reduced to 20 because it was felt that the deck would be too cluttered.At the British investigation, Charles Lightoller as the senior surviving officer was questioned about the fact that the lifeboats were not filled to capacity. They had been tested n Belfast on 25th March 1912 and each boat had carried seventy men safely. When questioned about the filling of lifeboat number six, Lightoller testified that the boat was filled with as many people as he considered to be safe. Lightoller believed that it would be impossible to fill the boats to capacity before lowering them to sea without the mechanism that held them collapsing. He was questioned as to whether he had arranged for more people to be put into the boats once it was afloat. Lightoller admitted that he should have made some arrangement for the boats to be filled once they were afloat. When asked if the crew member in charge of lifeboat number six was told to return to pick up survivors, the inquiry was told that the crew member was told to stay close to the ship. (questions 13883 – 13910) Lifeboat number 6 was designed to hold 65 people. It left with 40.Titanic also carried 3500 lifebelts and 48 life rings; Useless in the icy water. The majority of passengers that went into the sea did not drown, but froze to death.Usage of Titanic LifeboatsMany people were confused about where they should go after the order to launch the lifeboats had been given. There should have been a lifeboat drill on 14th April, but the Captain cancelled it to allow people to go to church.Many people believed that Titanic was not actually sinking but that the call to the Titanic lifeboats was actually a drill and stayed inside rather than venture out onto the freezing deckThe inquiry was concerned that there was a delay of more than an hour between the time of impact and the launching of the first lifeboat – number 7. As a result there was not enough time to successfully launch all the Titanic lifeboats. Collapsible lifeboats A and B were not launched but floated away as the water washed over the ship. Collapsible B floated away upside down. People tried unsuccessfully to right it. 30 people survived the disaster by standing on the upturned boat.The Californian: The Rescue Ship That Never Was(See main article: The Californian)So near but yet so far away….The Titanic was not the only ship in the North Atlantic ice field on the night of 14th April 1912.At around 10.30pm the liner Californian had stopped at the edge of the ice field for the night. They had turned off their radio and the operator had gone to bed.The night crew of the Californian noticed a big passenger liner stop some six miles to the south at 11.40pm. Shortly after midnight the Captain of the Californian was told by his crew that the big passenger liner was firing rockets into the sky. They concluded that the ship had stopped for the night and was having a party.At 2.20am it was noticed that the big ship had disappeared and the crew believed that it had steamed away.At 3.20am more rockets were seen and by 4.00am another ship, the Carpathia, could be clearly seen in the last noted position of the big liner.  The Californian’s wireless operator was awoken at around 5am and the crew learned of the fate of the Titanic.In the British and American inquiries into the disaster, Captain Stanley Lord of the Californian maintained that his ship was positioned nineteen miles north of the Titanic not six and could not have reached the Titanic in time to rescue passengers.However, many of Titanic’s survivors testified that there was indeed another ship about six miles north of Titanic. The inquiries concluded that the Californian had indeed been just six miles to the north of Titanic and could have reached the Titanic before it sank.A New Theory on the Titanic Sinking(See main article: Titanic Sinking: A New Theory)By now the story of the sinking of the Titanic is well-known and well-worn: Man creates an “unsinkable ship” and, in his hubris, brings along too few lifeboats. An iceberg cures his of his arrogance by tearing a hole in the side of the ship, sending it and thousands of passengers to the icy depths of the North Atlantic.But according to a new documentary, the iceberg may not have been the sole reason for the sinking of the Titanic. Instead, in an extraordinarily stroke of bad luck, the iceberg may have struck in the exact spot where the hull had been weakened by a coal fire that blazed in the depths of the ship prior to disembarking.Irish journalist Senan Molony argues in his January 2017 documentary “Titanic: The New Evidence” the hull of the ship was compromised weeks before its ill-fated voyage. He examined photos and eye-witness testimonies to determine that a fire spontaneously lit inside one of Titanic‘s coal bunkers and severely weakened a segment of the ship’s hull.“The ship is a single-skin ship,” Molony told Smithsonian.com. He means that while modern ships contain two hulls, Titanic, like other early twentieth-century vessels, had only one. Such a structure typically made for a weaker vessel, but in the Titanic‘s case it proved fatal. The bunkers where the crew stored engine coal was located next to the hull. The heat from the fire transferred directly to the ship’s metal structure.The ah-ha moment for Molony came when he discovered a trove of previously unknown photographs. Four years ago he purchased them from a descendant of the engineering chief of Harland and Wolff, the Irish company that built the Titanic. He was startled to see a thirty-foot-long black streak documented on the outside of the ships hull, near where the iceberg struck its blow.When Molony asked naval architects what the streak in the photograph could be, nobody knew but everyone was intrigued. “The best suggestion at the time was that this was a reflection.” But when the photograph was taken, there was no road or dock on the shore that could have been reflected in the hull.Other engineers believed the streak to have been caused by a fire in one of Titanic‘s three-story-tall coal bunkers. Molony assembled the facts in his own timeline in order to create a new narrative. He argues that the fire began as early as three weeks before the Titanic launched its voyage but was ignored due to pressure to keep the ship on schedule and fears of bad press. Britain ruled the seas but was facing increased pressure from Germany and others for the valuable immigrant trade.An article from the New York Tribute published shortly after Titanic survivors made landfall in the United States corroborates this theory:Stokers Agree Blaze Was in Progress from Time of Leaving Southampton Till 2 P.M. SaturdayEvery stoker who was interviewed declared that the Titanic was afire from the time she left Southampton until Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock. This story was first told by an officer of the ship, who requested that his name be withheld, saying that all the men had been warned not to talk about the disaster.“The fire was in the coal bunkers, forward,” said this man, “in stokeholes 9 and 10, on the forward end, in what is known as the second and third sections. The fire must have been raging long before she pulled out of her pier in Southampton, for the bunker was a raging hell when, one hour out past the Needles, the fire was discovered.”“Immediately we began to work on the fire, and it took us until Saturday afternoon to extinguish it. We were compelled to dig out all the coal from these sections. In my opinion this fire played no small part in the disaster, for when the bow was stove in[,] the waters readily tore open the watertight bulkheads, behind which had been the coal. If the coal had been still in the second and third sections when the vessel struck the iceberg it would have probably helped the bulkhead to resist the strain.”This account was one of the first explanations of the Titanic‘s sinking; it was mentioned by British officials in their official inquiry in 1912. But the narrative was downplayed by the judge who oversaw it, Molony said.“He was a shipping interest judge, and, in fact, he presided at a toast at the Shipwright’s Guild four years earlier, saying ‘may nothing ever adversely affect the great carrying power of this wonderful country. So he closes down efforts to pursue the fire, and he makes this finding that the iceberg acted alone.”Molony’s theory is plausible, but not everyone buys it. Denying the iceberg explanation, after all, puts him in odd company. A number of Titanic “truthers” have emerged over the decades, offering less-than-convincing explanations, such as a torpedo from a German U-boat sinking the ship. Others, as Dan Bilefsky of the New York Times notes, blame the sinking on an Egyptian mummy’s curse.The conventional wisdom still holds that the iceberg is the main culprit. “A fire may have accelerated this. But in my view, the Titanic would have sunk anyway,” Dave Hill, a former honorary secretary of the British Titanic Society, told Bilefsky.Molony believes that his version holds up due to the shakiness of the original inquiry’s findings. The same inquiry stated that the Titanic had sunk intact, while it was found later to be broken in half on the sea floor.“Just because an official finding says it doesn’t make it true,” Molony says.To read more about “Titanic: The New Evidence,” click here.Seven Amazing Stories Surrounding the Titanic(See main article: 7 Amazing Stories Surrounding Titanic)1. The First Film about the Titanic Premiered Just 29 Days after the Vessel SankYou may have seen James Cameron’s theatrical version of the Titanic, a movie that has accrued over $1.84 billion in total gross sales since its release in 1997. But we can confidently bet that you have never laid eyes on Saved From the Titanic, a 1912 silent motion picture starring actress and survivor of the RMS titanic, Dorothy Gibson.Ms. Gibson was one of the 28 people that safely made it out in the first lifeboat launched from the sinking ship, which floated around aimlessly for 5 hours until it was rescued. When she landed in New York, she co-wrote the script and played a fictional role of herself in the film. The plot involves her retelling the story of the incident to her family, with occasional flashbacks depicting what took place.The entire movie was filmed in a New Jersey studio, and aboard a ship in the New York Harbor. It was the first film in history to tell a story about the disaster, and was released just 29 days after it happened. Unfortunately, the movie is considered a lost film, as the only existing prints were destroyed in a fire in 1914.2. The 1997 Titanic Film Cost more to make than the Original RMS ShipThe Titanic vessel took 3 years to build and cost about $7.5 million. If we take inflation into account, then that would be roughly equivalent to $174 million in today’s dollars. The 1997 movie cost $200 million to film, which is way more than the Titanic itself.3. A Person Survived the Sinking of both the Titanic and her Sister Ship, BritannicViolet Constance Jessop may be the bravest ocean liner stewardess/nurse in history. Not only did she survive the unfortunate sinking of the RMS Titanic, but she also survived the sinking of her sister ship HMHS Britannic. Additionally, she was also onboard the RMS Olympic, their other sister ship, when it struck a protected cruiser.After the war, she continued to work for different ship lines. Years after she retired, Violet claims to have received a call from a woman who asked if she had saved a baby on the night of the Titanic. Violet replied, “yes,” and the woman replied with, “I was that baby.” The person then hung up. Violet claims to never have told anyone that story before the call.Ms. Jessop, who was often referred to as, “Ms. Unsinkable,” died of heart failure in 1971 at the age of 84.4. Not One Single Engineer aboard the Titanic Survived the Disaster; They Sacrificed Themselves in Order to Give Others a Chance to EscapeWhen the order came to “abandon ship,” it was far too late for the engineers aboard the Titanic to escape. They could not make their way through the confusing passageways deep in the heart of the Titanic, and many of them most likely did not try. They probably did not drown, but were instead crushed by the boilers and machinery that broke when the vessel sank deeper.They died carrying out their duty, and sacrificed themselves so that others would have a chance at surviving.5. The Only Japanese Survivor of the Titanic was Condemned as a Coward in Japan and Lost his JobMasabumi Hosono was the only Japanese passenger aboard the Titanic to survive the disaster. When he arrived in Japan, he was condemned by the public for his decision to save himself rather then go down with the vessel. As a result, he lost his job, but was soon re-employed and continued to work until 1939.To be fair, a lot of the men that survived the Titanic were frowned upon, because they were supposed to let women and children on the lifeboats first. However, Mr. Hosomo was the only survivor who reportedly lost his job as a result.6. A Mexican Drug Lord had Two Watches Made From the Metal of the TitanicWhen the feds captured Gulf Cartel Leader, Jorge Eduardo, they found a lot of expensive jewellery in his mansion, but nothing was as rare as the two watches made from the original metal of the Titanic ship.7. A Priest Refused a Spot on a Lifeboat Twice, and Instead Decided to Stay BehindAn English Catholic priest named Thomas Roussel Davis Byles remained on board the Titanic as it was sinking, listening to confessions and giving absolution. He was portrayed in the 1997 film by actor James Lancaster.The “Titan”: A Prophesy of the Titanic Sinking?(See main article: Titanic – Futility)Robertson’s novel features a ship, the Titan, ‘..which was the largest craft afloat and the greatest of the works of men’. No expense was spared on making the ship luxurious and the steward’s cabin is described as being ‘equal to that of a first class hotel.’The latest technology was used in the building of the Titan including the addition of ‘..nineteen water-tight compartments.. With nine compartments flooded the ship would still float, and as no known incident of the sea could possibly fill this many, the steamship Titan was considered practically unsinkable.’Because Titan was considered unsinkable she only carried the minimum number of lifeboats required by law – 24 – able to carry 500 people. This was not enough for the 2000 passengers on board.Morgan Robertson’s Titan hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean and sank. 2987 people died in the disaster.Morgan Robertson republished Futility after the sinking of the Titanic with some notable changes suggesting that he was trying to cash in on the Titanic disaster.Nevertheless, the similarities between The Titan and Titanic are striking:Did the book predict the Titanic disaster?Uncanny, but true!Bibliography(See main article: Bibliography)Titanic and other White Star Line Ships – Mark M NicholTitanic’s Mail – James H BrunsTitanic Facts and Figures – Jim SadurThe Unsinkable Molly Brown – Danuta BoisThe Grave of Titanic – Gulf of Maine AquariumTitanic Disaster – Karl MetelkoEncyclopedia Titanica – (comprehensive passenger information)The Californian – a manufactured mystery – George BeheTitanic Titanic – Over 2,500 pages of factsBritish and US Inquiries into the DisasterHow Titanic became ‘unsinkable’ – George Behe’s Titanic TidbitsTitanic Photographs Date     Time     Details 29th July 1908         The design for the Titanic was approved. 31st March 1909         The keel of Titanic was laid 31st May 1911     12 noon     The hull of Titanic was successfully launched Loading...

For instance, the Hope Diamond, the Graff Pink, and Princess Diana's engagement ring. However, few pieces of jewelry are shrouded in such mystery and romance as the famous Heart of the Ocean necklace. The Heart of the Ocean, though famous for its appearance in the movie The Titanic, was a real necklace with its own romantic story. The necklace was gifted between a starry-eyed couple traveling onboard The Titanic, but its story is a little different than James Cameron's version. The Story of the Heart of the Ocean Just like in the movie, the Heart of the Ocean is a necklace whose history is closely intertwined with the famous ocean liner The Titanic. However, the story goes a little bit differently than it does in the Hollywood flick. The Heart of the Ocean wasn't a heart-shaped necklace, but it did contain the same stones as the movie version. And, just like in the movie, the necklace was gifted to a young girl. The Tragedy of the Heart of the Ocean However, the true lovers involved in the story of the Heart of the Ocean weren't Jack and Rose. Instead, they were a 20-year-old girl named Kate Florence Phillips and her lover, Henry Samuel Morley. Morley was a 40-year-old married man who owned a confectionary in London. Kate was his young employee and secret mistress. The pair had decided that they wanted to start a new life together and had chosen to elope aboard The Titanic under the names Mr. and Mrs. Marshall. To show his love and devotion to his new bride, Henry gave young Kate the Heart of the Ocean. It was his way of showing her that he was ready for the new life that awaited them in America. Alas, that new life never came. On April 15, 1912, the ocean liner slipped into the ocean, carrying Henry Morley with it. Kate was one of the lucky ones and was rescued by Lifeboat No.11. She was wearing nothing but the necklace and a thin nightgown to protect her from the harsh ocean spray and freezing winds. The Aftermath After Kate made it to shore, she decided it was time to start her new life, even if it meant doing so without her beloved. She moved to New York and proceeded to live with a young couple who had offered to take her in. While living with her rescuers, Kate discovered that she was pregnant. Since the couple didn't want to care for both Kate and the new baby, Kate was forced to move back to England to live with her grandparents. The new baby arrived shortly after Kate made it back to England and was named Ellen Mary. However, haunted by the memory of the baby's father, Kate left her new daughter in the care of her grandparents. Kate, who treated her new daughter much like Cinderella's evil stepmother did, went on to remarry eventually. She rarely talked about her daughter's father and didn't reveal the sordid details until the girl was grown up. Kate, who had treasured the Heart of the Ocean for years, eventually left it to her new daughter. Ellen and The Heart of the Ocean Once Ellen discovered who her father was, she tried in vain to have his name added to her birth certificate. However, she wasn't able to do so successfully. After inheriting her mother's necklace, she fell into hard times. This was during the 1990s, and she was forced to sell the Heart of the Ocean to help get by. The new owner was a woman who lived in Florida. Ellen spent much of her life trying to prove her father's identity. She went on to have children of her own and passed down the tragic yet romantic story of her mother and her necklace to her family. What Does the Heart of the Ocean Symbolize? There is a lot of symbolism surrounding the Heart of the Ocean, both the real gemstone and the fictional one. Both tales are surrounded by romance and tragedy, despite their differences. The Fictional Gem The fictional heart of the ocean was meant to symbolize Rose's heart. We can infer this from her subtle line, "A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets." Rose viewed the necklace as a way to remember her time with Jack and the secret affair she was having. As one final ode to their time together, she throws the jewel back into the ocean where its secrets will be guarded forever. The Real Gem The real Heart of the Ocean also has some symbolism surrounding it. We can find this symbolism by looking at the meaning of colors and those selected for this necklace. The beautiful deep blue of the sapphire represents luxury and was a color traditionally worn by the wealthy. In addition, blue has long been associated with despair and sadness. Another interesting fact about the Heart of the Ocean is that it contains the same colors as Princess Diana's engagement ring. This similarity to another tragic tale further underscores the sadness that the ring symbolizes. What Stone Is the Heart of the Ocean? The fictional Heart of the Ocean was made of a blue, heart-shaped diamond. It was surrounded by smaller white diamonds, creating a stunning necklace that was said to have been worn by Louis XVI. However, the real Heart of the Ocean was made out of some very different stones. The real Heart of the Ocean stone is actually a blue sapphire. There is some debate as to whether the blue sapphire was natural or not. By 1902, just ten years before the tragedy of The Titanic, jewelers were already making synthetic gemstones. Just like the fictional Heart of the Ocean, the real necklace also featured several smaller diamonds. The diamonds surrounded the sapphire stone in a square pattern. The Fictional Heart of the Ocean Even though there was no real Heart of the Ocean necklace, the producers did commission a necklace to be made as a prop for the film. However, considering the high cost of a real Heart of the Ocean, the replica did not contain the same jewels. The movie Heart of the Ocean was made using cubic zirconia rather than real diamonds. Cubic zirconia is considerably less expensive than diamonds and was more attainable for the purposes of the movie. The metal used on the Heart of the Ocean was white gold. White gold is considerably cheaper than platinum but still offers that beautiful bright silver color. Who Made the Heart of the Ocean? Although we don't know the maker of the real Heart of the Ocean, we do know who made several replicas of the gem. After James Cameron's film took off, many jewelers created valuable replicas of the necklace. The Asprey & Gerard Replica One such replica was made by a jewelry company called Asprey & Gerard. Thanks to the popularity of the movie, fans began to clamor for reproductions of the famous diamond necklace. The first replica that was crafted was originally created as a donation to the Sotheby charity auction. It was made out of a 171-carat sapphire that the jewelers cut into a heart shape to mimic the cut of the stone in the film. The jewelers then placed 103 diamond accents around the sapphire. The diamonds were set into a beautiful platinum necklace. The necklace was very appropriately worn by Celine Dion to the Academy Awards in 1998. Celine Dion is the singer of the main theme song of The Titanic, "My Heart Will Go On." The Harry Winston Replica Asprey & Gerard wasn't the only jeweler to make a replica of the Heart of the Ocean. Harry Winston is famously the owner of the Hope Diamond, the Briolette of India, and several other legendary jewels. Harry Winston chose to make his own version of the movie's Heart of the Ocean necklace. He used a 15-carat blue diamond as the centerpiece for the necklace. Then, he surrounded the necklace in beautiful white diamonds. The result was worth over ten times the Asprey & Gerard version was worth thanks to its high level of care and professional design. To honor his new piece of jewelry, Henry Winston allowed Gloria Stuart to wear the necklace to the Academy Awards in 1998. Gloria was the ideal person to wear this jewelry because of her role as the elderly Rose in the movie The Titanic. Was the Real Heart of the Ocean Ever Found? Thanks to the fact that Kate Phillips carefully guarded her precious necklace, the Heart of the Ocean never actually went missing. As such, there was no need to hunt for the real gem the way divers did in the film! Instead, the necklace was passed down from Kate to her daughter. When it eventually left the care of the family, it made its way to a museum. Thankfully, since the gemstone is safely in the care of a museum, we won't have to organize any wild diving expeditions to find this beautiful necklace. Instead, we can continue to enjoy the treasure for years to come. Real Jewelry Found on the Titanic While the Heart of the Ocean was never actually lost, there were other pieces of jewelry that were lost onboard the Titanic. One such piece of jewelry is a locket that was found onboard the ocean liner. The locket contained a photo of two lovers who sank to the ocean floor along with their cruise ship. Where Is the Real Heart of the Ocean Necklace? So, we know that the Heart of the Ocean was thrown back into the sea in the blockbuster movie. However, the fate of the real Heart of the Ocean is quite different. When Ellen Mary ran into difficult times and was forced to sell her mother's necklace, it ventured quite far from home. She sold her necklace to a woman living in Florida. The woman held onto the gemstone until her death. After she passed away, the necklace was donated to the Titanic museum in Belfast. Visitors to the museum can still take in the beauty and grandeur of this gemstone. However, they'll note immediately that it looks quite different from the fictional version in the film. How Much Is the Heart of the Ocean Worth Today? If the Heart of the Ocean had been a real necklace, it would have been valued at a whopping 350 million dollars! That's a huge amount of money, which is probably why the filmmakers chose not to recreate the actual piece of jewelry. The cheaper version that was crafted for the film's purposes was made for just over $9,000. It is still stored in the film's studio, despite its high value as a piece of jewelry. The various replicas of the Heart of the Ocean are also quite valuable. For example, Henry Winston's version of this precious necklace is valued at $20 million! The other famous replica of the Heart of the Ocean, crafted by Asprey & Gerard, was valued at $2.2 million. Its lower price tag is due to the lower quality of the materials used and the different stones in the necklace. A Truth Stranger Than Fiction It's often said that truth is stranger than fiction, and when it comes to the Heart of the Ocean, that's certainly true. This necklace has become legendary in pop culture, and its tale is one that will certainly live on.

The jewels worn by Hollywood stars on the screen, whether diamonds, rubies or emeralds, are always beautiful. So special that the plot often spins around these legendary gems like the Heart of the Ocean, the blue diamond worn by Kate Winslet in Titanic or the Cartier Toussaint necklace that Sandra Bullock and her gang of thieves steals in Ocean's 8. Harry Winston was the first jeweler, back in 1943, to offer his creations to stars for the red carpet, but since then, the jewels of Cartier, Bulgari, Tiffany & Co. and many other major brands have also been the envy of all common mortals who saw millions of dollars worth of diamonds and amethysts only in the movies. Get ready to dream because here below you find a list of the 10 most iconic jewels in movies.   Moon of Baroda - Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) In an iconic scene of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Marilyn Monroe, dressed in pink satin, sings Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friends while a crowd of men cover her in shiny but, sadly, fake jewelry. The real gem, Moon of Baroda, was worn by the actress only for the movie's promotional campaign. This pear-shaped canary-yellow diamond was discovered in the mines of Golconda, India, and remained the property of the Gaekwad dynasty for over 500 years until the Maharajah of Baroda gave it to Empress Maria Theresa of Habsburg who, in turn, passed it on to her daughter, Queen Marie Antoinette. It was auctioned in 2018 for $1.3 million.   Cartier ring - High Society (1956) In High Society, Grace Kelly plays the socialite Tracy Samantha Lord, a divorced woman wooed by three men: her ex-husband and jazz musician (Bing Crosby), a businessman (John Lund) and a journalist (Frank Sinatra). Among the many jewels in the movie, there is a very special one: a Cartier ring with an emerald-cut 10.47-carat diamond set on a platinum frame. In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, the actress confessed that the stone was her second engagement ring, given to her by her betrothed, Prince Rainier III, after he heard that Grace would have to wear a giant solitaire on set.   Ribbon Rosette - Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) Audrey Hepburn,  in the role of Holly Golightly, who, while the sun is still rising over New York City, gets out of a cab in an evening dress and stops to look at Tiffany's window sipping coffee and eating a danish pastry is one of the most iconic images ever. Together with that unforgettable Givenchy little black dress, the star of Blake Edwards' movie is wearing a pair of sunglasses by Oliver Goldsmith, a tiara and a necklace made by Roger Scemama, consisting of five strands of pearls embellished on the front by a jewel clasp. Even more precious is the one you can see in the promotional campaign of Breakfast at Tiffany's: the Ribbon Rosette. It is a necklace created by Jean Schlumberger, one of the most appreciated designers of the 20th century, and made in platinum, yellow gold and diamonds with, in the center, one of the largest and most beautiful yellow diamonds in the world. The gemstone was discovered in the Kimberly Mine in South Africa in 1877 and was purchased the following year by Charles Lewis Tiffany for $18,000, who had it cut into its present cushion shape with 82 facets. To this day, the jewel has been worn three times: by Mrs Mary Whitehouse at a charity gala in 1957; by Audrey Hepburn to advertise Breakfast at Tiffany's; Lady Gaga on the red carpet at the Academy Awards 2019.   Serpenti bracelet - Cleopatra (1963) In Rome, on the set of Cleopatra, Liz Taylor fell in love with Richard Burton, starting one of Hollywood's most turbulent and epic love stories ever. Ironically, he used to repeat in interviews: "the only word Liz knows in Italian is Bulgari" or "I introduced Liz to beer, she introduced me to Bulgari". Over the years, Burton has given his beloved many wonderful jewels, but one of the most unique pieces worn by the purple-eyed diva no one knows who bought it, only that it was sold by the Italian brand in 1962. It is a snake-shaped gold bracelet decorated with rubies, diamonds and emeralds. You can admire it in a shot of Taylor made in the '60s during the shooting of Cleopatra and recalls the jewelry worn by the actress in the colossal that, instead, were all props created by Joseff of Hollywood, the company behind the most glittering creations of Hollywood's Golden Age.   Ruby necklace - Pretty Woman (1990) As in true modern and romantic fairy tale, in Pretty Woman Julia Roberts finds love and a wardrobe full of evening dresses and elegant items, but also a precious white gold necklace with diamonds and 23 rubies. Made especially for the film by French goldsmith Fred Joaillier, the necklace is worth about $1.35 million.   Heart of the Ocean - Titanic (1997) The Heart of the Ocean is perhaps the most famous jewel of contemporary cinematography. We all remember that 56 carat diamond with its heart-shaped cut and deep blue color at the neck of Roses in the highlight scenes of the film and, in particular, when she is portrayed naked by Jack, dressed only with the legendary necklace. In James Cameron's cult, it is said that the necklace, before being given to Rose by her boyfriend Cal Hockley, belonged to the King of France Louis XVI, but, actually, it never existed. During the shooting, in fact, Kate Winslet was wearing a replica not with diamonds, but with zircons, made by London jewelers Asprey & Garrard and inspired by three famous diamonds that are part of the history of French royalty: the Regent, Marie Antoinette Bleu and the Hope diamond. None of them ever traveled on the transatlantic ship, but all fans of Rose and Jack can keep on dreaming because on the edge of the Titanic there seems to have really been a romantic story linked both to a precious stone and to a couple in love. It was a necklace with a sapphire surrounded by diamonds, given by Henry Samuel Morley to Kate Florence Phillips, who was an assistant in one of the man's candy stores. For her, Morley abandoned his wife and daughter and the couple left London looking for fortune in America, but, just like in the movie, Samuel died during the shipwreck, while Kate survived and kept the gift for the rest of her life. Over the years, Heart of the Ocean has been replicated several times, one of the most famous and precious versions was worn by Céline Dion at the 1998 Oscars during her performance of My heart will go on: a 170-carat sapphire necklace set with 65 round diamonds, auctioned for $2.2 million.   Satine necklace - Moulin Rouge! (2001) Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. Marilyn Monroe sang it in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Nicole Kidman repeated it many years later in Moulin Rouge! In the film directed by Baz Luhrmann, the character she plays, the étoile Satine, receives as a gift from the Duke of Monroth an impressive illuminated necklace of 1,308 diamonds set in platinum, with a 2.5 carat sapphire as a clasp. The creation designed by Australian jeweler Stefano Canturi was inspired by the Louis XVI style, perforated lace, parchments and splendid late 19th century bodices and is one of the most expensive jewels ever made for the cinema and is estimated to be worth around $1 million.   Isadora necklace - How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days (2003) The most famous comedy outfit of the early 2000's comedy How to get left in 10 days is all yellow. Kate Hudson, in the role of Andie Anderson, wears a yellow satin slip dress that fashion designer Dina Bar-El has created inspired by the Isadora necklace. What makes this jewel by Harry Winston, the focus of a popular scene in the movie, so special? The 84-carat yellow diamond surrounded by a circle of white Wreath-cut diamonds. Together these stones are worth about $5.3 million.   Savoy headpiece - The Great Gatsby (2013) The version of The Great Gatsby directed by Baz Luhrmann is a great visual delight: great actors like Carey Mulligan and Leonardo Di Caprio; sumptuous locations; a soundtrack with songs by Lana Del Rey, The XX and Beyoncé; costumes by Prada and jewelry by Tiffany & Co. From the partnership with the famous New York brand were born wonderful creations such as the daisy seal ring that Gatsby wears, Daisy's pearl necklace and, above all, the tiara she wears at the party organized by the character of Di Caprio. The jewel, which perfectly embodies the Jazz Age of the 1920s and the style of the flapper girls, was directly inspired by a design discovered in Tiffany's archives, recreated using high-quality diamonds and pearls.   Toussaint necklace - Ocean’s 8 (2018) In Ocean’s 8 the gang of ultra-cool thieves led by Sandra Bullock steals a precious necklace worn by Anne Hathaway during the Met Gala: the Cartier Toussaint. It was a replica, adapted to the proportions of the actress, of the jewel created by Jacques Cartier in 1931 for the Maharaja of Nawanagar. The original piece, called "the most beautiful cascade of colored diamonds in the world", included several pink and white diamonds, a 12-carat olive green diamond and a 136.25-carat blue-white diamond known as the Queen of Holland which, unfortunately, disappeared when the Maharaja was exiled. Top 15 Most Expensive Pieces of Jewelry Ever Made Thanks to their mesmerizing beauty, but also due to their great rarity, there are gemstones that have been sold for mind-bogglingly high sums of money, making them probably the single most valuable objects on the planet for their size and weight. Rare pieces are very hard to get so make sure you go to a reliable dealer like Berganza. In fact, one might even argue that the value of some stones is virtually immeasurable. Details below! 15. Briolette Diamond Necklace – $11 Million During May 2013, in Hong Kong, Christie’s presented the biggest briolette diamond ever auctioned. The highlight of the stunning pendant necklace is the huge 75.36-carat diamond, but the piece also includes a marquise-cut purplish pink diamond suspended above the briolette. The two diamonds are joined by a briolette diamond neck chain mounted in 18k rose and white gold. This unique briolette diamond necklace eventually was eventually sold for more than $11 million. 14. Princess Katharina Henckel von Donnersmarck’s Emerald and Diamond Tiara – $12.3 Million This exquisite emerald and diamond tiara was commissioned around the year 1900 for Princess Katharina Henckel von Donnersmarck. Reportedly created by Parisian jewelry house Chaumet, the piece, which comprises 11 rare Colombian emerald pear-shaped drops weighing in at over 500 carats, was worn only in the presence of royalty. Auctioned by Sotheby’s in Geneva in May 2011, it sold for over $2 million more than previously estimated. 13. Bulgari Blue Diamond Ring – $15.7 Million Another eye-catching jewel which broke records when it was auctioned a few years ago, the Bulgari Blue Diamond ring was created in the 1970s and was initially a gift from a wealthy collector to his wife after the birth of their first son. It features a 9.87 carat colorless triangular-shaped diamond, together with a triangular 10.95 carat “Fancy Vivid” blue diamond, the largest blue diamond of this cut offered at auction until that date. 12. Heart of the Ocean – $17 Million A great example of life imitating art, the Heart of the Ocean necklace was initially a fictional jewel worn by Kate Winslet’s character in the movie Titanic. The film was a huge success, so the company who created what was basically a movie prop, London-based jeweler Asprey & Garrard, was commissioned to make a “real” necklace following the same design. What Asprey & Garrard came up with was a platinum-set, 171-carat (34.2 g) heart-shaped Ceylon sapphire surrounded by 103 diamonds which was sold to an anonymous buyer for a staggering $17 million! 11. Pink Diamond – $17.77 Million Late last year, in Hong Kong, Sotheby’s sold this stunning 8.41-carat fancy vivid purple-pink diamond for a massive $17.77 million. Mined by De Beers, the gem was meticulously cut from a larger, 18-carat diamond, and fitted platinum ring, mounted and pavé-set throughout with circular-cut diamonds. In addition to its obviously beautiful color, the Type IIa diamond (the most chemically pure of all gemstones of this nature) also boasts some pretty rare qualities, such as its size, beautiful hue, and rich saturation of color. 10. The Perfect Pink – $23.2 Million Pink diamonds seem to have gained a lot of popularity recently, with many such gemstones being sold for eight figure sums in the past few years. A great example of this is the aptly-named Perfect Pink, which went for over $23 million in November 2010. The 14.23 carat diamond is quite a rarity according to Christie’s, who only sold around 20 such pink stones over 10 carats in almost 250 years of history.   9. The Winston Blue – $23.8 Million The Winston Blue is an extremely valuable ring featuring the largest flawless vivid blue diamond in the world, which was auctioned by Christie’s in May 2014. The stunningly beautiful 13.22 carat piece was acquired by Harry Winston, and named in honor of the company’s legendary founder by its CEO, Nayla Heyek. The price of the deal was a hefty $23.8, far exceeding expectations (as it often seems to happen when people try to outbid each other for these things). 8. The Wittelsbach-Graff Diamond – $24.3 Million The Wittelsbach blue diamond is one of the most prestigious gemstones in the world. With a history going as far back as the 17th century, it was part of the Bavarian crown jewels before disappearing for decades during the 20th century. It finally reappeared and was subsequently bought at an auction by Laurence Graff for over $24 million. The legendary jeweler then proceeded to recut the stone, reducing it from 35.52 carats to a little over 31 carats, thus improving its clarity, brilliance, and grade. This move has proved to be quite controversial, being compared to painting over a masterpiece by Rembrandt or Da Vinci in order to make it “prettier.” 7. Hutton-Mdivani Jadeite Necklace by Cartier – $27 Million The Hutton-Mdivani Necklace by the Cartier Collection is a magnificent piece valued at a staggering $27.44 million. It comprises 27 large jadeite beads of splendid color, with diameters ranging from 15.4 mm to 19.2 mm, and once belonged to the famous socialite Barbara Hutton, daughter of retail tycoon Frank W. Woolworth. The beautiful necklace, mounted by Cartier with a beautiful ruby and diamond clasp, was a wedding gift for her first marriage, in 1933, to Prince Alexis Mdivani. 6. The Orange – $36 Million When it was auctioned by Christie’s in Geneva in November 2013, this incredible stone, simply referred to as The Orange, was by far the largest fancy vivid orange diamond to be sold this way. Unsurprisingly, it fetched a record-breaking bid as well, which rose to an amazing $35.5 million, blowing its estimated value of $21 million out of the water. At almost $2.4 million per carat, this eye-catching gem also set a world record price per carat for any colored diamond sold at auction. 5. Pink Emerald-Cut Graff Diamond – $46 Million Graded “Fancy Intense Pink” by the Gemological Institute of America, this 24.78-carat emerald-cut stone was bought at auction by none other than Laurence Graff himself, who described it “the most fabulous diamond I’ve seen in my career.” What makes this diamond so amazing is the combination of color and purity with the elegance of the emerald-cut, which is usually reserved for white diamonds – rare features which greatly raised the stone’s allure. 4. L’Incomparable Necklace – $55 Million The impossibly expensive L’Incomparable Diamond Necklace was unveiled by the internationally acclaimed Mouawad jewelry company and still has the honor of being the most valuable piece of its kind in the world. In an incredible stroke of luck, this jaw-dropping gem was discovered by chance by a young girl in the Congo three decades ago in a pile of kimberlite (a by-product of diamond mining). Its centerpiece is the world’s largest internally flawless diamond (which is a massive 407.48 carats!), but the necklace also features no fewer than 102 smaller stones. 3. The Pink Star – $72 Million Rarely is a gemstone of its quality and value available for purchase, so when Sotheby’s auctioned this impressive 59.60-carat diamond called the Pink Star in late 2013, you know buyers with very deep pockets would line up to acquire it. In fact, interest for the diamond was so great, the final bid far exceeded the estimated $61 million it was expected to fetch, and actually rose to more than $83 million. Unfortunately, the buyer couldn’t come up with the record-breaking fee in time, so Sotheby’s has retained the stone, valuing it at $72 million. 2. Peacock Brooch by Graff – $100 Million In the world of diamonds, there’s no one bigger than Graff – so to once again highlight their status, the London-based company has created this staggeringly expensive Peacock brooch, which is worth more than a private jet! The piece boasts over 1,000 gemstones (1,305 to be exact), weighing in at 120.81 carats, with the deep blue diamond at its heart tipping the scales at just over 20 carats by itself. Certainly not intended to be worn (at least not in public), unless you actually get a kick out of having the GDP of a small nation on you when you go out. 1. The Hope Diamond – Inestimable One of the most infamous pieces of jewelry in history, the Hope Diamond is legendary not only for its great beauty, but also for allegedly being cursed. Over the centuries, it was in the possession of the likes of Louis XIV and Harry Winston, with the latter donating it to the Smithsonian Institution in 1958, where it has been on display ever since. The mesmerizing, 45.52-carat deep-blue diamond has been valued in the hundreds of millions; however, according to the Smithsonian, its rarity, extremely high profile, and immense cultural value make its worth ultimately inestimable – and we’re inclined to agree.
