Profile

Origin

Queen Victoria wearing the Koh-i-Noor as a brooch, painted by Franz Xaver Winterhalter (1856)

Replica of Elizabeth the Queen Mother's crown

The Koh-i-Noor is a 105.6-carat diamond belonging to the monarch of Britain.

The diamond gained its current name when it was looted from the Peacock Throne in Delhi as part of Nader Shah's invasion of India in the 1740s. Following the killing of Nader Shah, the diamond was given to his grandson Shahrokh Shah, who gave it to Ahmad Shah of the Durrani Empire in 1751. When Ahmad Shah's grandson Shuja Shah was overthrown by Mahmud Shah in 1809, Shuja Shah was exiled and fled with the Koh-i-Noor to Punjab. Maharaja Ranjit Singh of the Sikh Empire allegedly extorted the diamond from him later in 1813. The diamond traded hands several times thereafter, never leaving Lahore until after its acquisition by Maharaja Gulab Singh in 1846.

The diamond was surrendered to Queen Victoria in 1849 as part of the Last Treaty of Lahore following the annexation of the Punjab Province by the British East India Company. At the time, the stone weighed roughly 191 carats. The stone was recut in 1852 at the request of Prince Albert, the Queen's husband, as guests were underwhelmed by its appearance during the Great Exhibition at Hyde Park in 1851. Today, it is embedded within the Crown of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, which was not used in the coronation of Queen Camilla in 2025 by suggestion of the Indian government, instead being crowned with the Crown of Queen Mary.

Design

Koh-i-Noor's design in Persona 5 is based on the Crown of Elizabeth the Queen Mother, which has housed the diamond since 1937. The design was simplified to remove the cross which the Koh-i-Noor diamond was embedded in, leaving the diamond, and the fleurs-de-lis were also removed.
