Seven generations ago, Monsieur Favre left his native village, Neuchatel in Switzerland, to establish one of the world’s oldest and most renowned successful dynasties. The Mozafarian story is one of romance when Monsieur Favre was invited under royal patronage to leave the west and build clock towers in Persia. Whilst serving the Royal Families, Monsieur Favre fell in love with the people and culture but it was true love that solidified his commitment. His heart was captured by a Persian lady and they soon after united in marriage. The Mozafarian name was born, deriving from meaning of being Victorious.

In the centre of the Grand Bazaar of Tehran, Persia, the Mozafarian brand stood at the forefront of a trade, infamous with Persia and Persian culture. With new shop openings and bespoke pieces being commissioned for royals Mozafarian was ‘the’ jeweller. Mozafarian served as the Shah of Persia’s personal watch maker and jeweller, serving both the Qajar Dynasty and with the late Pahlavi Dynasty.
