A DIAMOND jewel owned and abandoned by Napoleon Bonaparte after the Battle of Waterloo will go up for auction for the first time.
The brooch, made of nearly 100 diamonds, was left behind after the emperor fled Waterloo's battlefield to return to Paris, and was given to the King of Prussia three days later as part of the trophies his armies took back.
It will now go under the hammer for the first time in Sotheby's The Royal and Noble Jewels Sale event on Wednesday, November 12, with an estimated sale price of £112,674 to £187,790, writes Lauren Del Fabbro for PA news agency.
