Persian Jewels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Iran (formally Persia) possesses an extraordinary treasure of royal jewelry, including a copious amount of mother-of-pearl from the Persian Gulf. The Iranian crown jewels are among the largest, most dazzling and valuable jewel collection in the world.[citation needed] The jewels are displayed in the vaults of the Central Bank of Iran in Tehran,[when?] and are one of the most appealing tourist attractions in Iran.

Akik is also exported from Iran to various countries including the Indian subcontinent.
