(Charles Boyer) gave her on their wedding day. After selling the jewelry Louise invents a story that the earrings were lost at the Opera, but when the story breaks in the newspapers the jeweler Monsieur Remy (Jean Debucourt) who bought them thinks he may be held responsible so he tells Andre, and he purchases them back. Miffed by the sale Andre gives them to his mistress Lola (Lia Di Leo) who departs for Constantinople where she finds she must pawn the earrings to pay her gambling debts. While touring Constantinople on diplomatic duties, Baron Fabrizio Donati (Vittorio De Sica) buys the earrings from a jeweler and travels back to Paris.
