LOUIS XV.

17101774.


FROM the “Grande Monarque” the “Sancy” passed to his successor Louis XV., who wore it as a hat ornament at his coronation. It also appears among the French Crown jewels in the Inventory of 1791, but was stolen the following year with other valuables at the robbery of the Garde Meuble.
