I think this museum is the best in Iran. Just remember that there is a limitation in times that you can visit here. Also mobiles and bags are not allowed in the museum and you have to give it for entrance

If you are either visiting Tehran or live there, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the museum!
It is best to arrange the visit during the week, since it is REALLY busy and crowded during Noruz(Iranian new year holidays).
The museum is in the central bank and security is really tight and you are not allowed to take photos but every minute of your visit will be worth the time you spend.
All kinds of precocious stones are on display designed by famous local and international designers of different decades and centuries (mainly 19th and 20th centuries).
You can get a brief review on the website but seeing them is a different experience.

Not my first choice between Tehran's museums, but not the last either. I believe it is for people with a special interest in this kind of treasure, but, imho, the arts of the common people of Iran, like enamel, miniatures, woodwork etc, that you can see in other museums, well surpass it.

Have in mind that it may take a long time to get in, with three different queues (to buy ticket, to leave your things, to get in), that took us about an hour on a public holiday, when the museum was open only for two and a half hours. So, better to get there at least half an hour earlier than the opening hour, to save time in the second and third queue.

This is ope rarely. If yiou are in Tehran whennit is open, you must go. You ahve to go on a guided tour (quite rushed) and there are the strictest security precautions that we found on our tour.
The contents are incredible, including the Peacock throne, and it gives an idea why the Shah had to leave. Quite a number if oddities. If you really want to get something different for the royal family, why not give them a diamond encrusted umbrella? Regrettably, photos are not allowed
