Why Marie Antoinette’s Jewels Were Hidden for Centuries

Marie Antoinette’s personal jewelry collection survived the French Revolution
because she smuggled it in a wooden chest to her family in Austria just before her execution.

These treasures remained hidden for over 200 years as private Bourbon- Parma heirlooms, staying out of the public eye to avoid political controversy and state seizure until a record-breaking auction in 2018.
