A diamond butterfly brooch on display at the Natural History Museum's (Jewel) Vault room, London.
In Islam, the Quran addresses believers, saying that those who do good, act with justice, are fair etc in this life will have many rewards in the afterlife. Amongst such rewards are jewels to ones hearts contentment. However the greatest reward for a person of faith goes beyond such things, the true success is to find peace, the greatest of rewards. This is why, as beautiful as this brooch is, all that glitters is not gold :)
