France's Jean-Baptiste Tavernier (1605–1689), a diamond trader and adventurer, lived in the 17th century. Between 1630 and 1668, Tavernier, a private man, and trader who journeyed at his own expense, travelled to Persia, and India six times. He contrasted India's commercial circumstances to those of Iran, and the Ottoman Empire since he was particularly interested in them.
