jewel thieves
Diamond heist perpetrators
Jewel thieves are criminals who specialize in stealing gems, jewelry, and precious stones.
The term carries a romantic, almost glamorous connotation from heist films and detective fiction—elegant burglars in black, elaborate museum capers, international intrigue: The jewel thieves made off with a diamond necklace worth millions.
Real jewel theft is typically less cinematic.
