PAPERWEIGHT VALUED
MORE THAN $35,000
LONDON. Nov. 14.—Declared to
be the largest saphire in the world,
a jewel, once used as a common
paperweight, has been brought from
India and is now being offered for
exhibition in London. The jewel is
worth more than $35,000, wieghs 916
carats and is in the form of a pluck
ed flower with a short stem. It
was acquired by a government of
ficial in India, who, ignorant of its
value, used it as a paperweight in
one of the guard huts on the Indian
frontier.
The discovery of the jewel was
made by the director of Indian Reve
nue when he visited the outpost.
Its history has been traced to the
twelfth century when one of the
Bellala kings, while on a pilgrimage
to Ceylon, was given the sapphire
by a Buddhist monk. During the
reign of this king the stone became
the object of much veneration and
was afterwards captured by Malik
Kaffur, the great general of Allan
dan. Later it came into the pos
session of a state official, but was
lost about 1875.
Experts are of the opinion that
the j&wel was a hair ornament of
an ancient deity and there is, it
is believed, a companion stone in
existence.
