Summary[edit]

Description
English: After being plundered for its jewels, Kalakaua's crown was left twisted and broken. Every jewel had been pried out. The velvet lining had been torn away, and the Maltese cross on top, with its stunning six-carat diamond, had been broken off and taken. The ring of kalo leaves along the band was bent, and some of its gold filigree was missing.
