Original parure made in 1811 by Maison Nitot for Empress Marie Louise (1791-1847), the second wife of Napoleon I. Louis XVIII had the crown jewels redone in the Restoration style instead of the Empire style. In 1816, the parure was remade to suit the Duchess of Angoulême. The rubies were worn by Queen Marie-Amélie and Empress Eugénie. The set used nearly 400 rubies and more than 6,000 diamonds. It was finally auctioned off by the Third Republic in 1887.

The Mancini Pearls were gifted to Marie Mancini by King Louis XIV as a symbol of his love.
