Taj Al-Duleh (?–1881) was the forty second wife of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar and a poet. Her birth name was Tavus Khanum and she was from Georgian descent. She was born in Isfahan. She married Fath-Ali Shah in 1845 when she was 15 years old. The King changed the name of bejeweled Khorshid throne to Tavus throne on the occasion of this marriage. She was educated under the supervisor of Neshat Isfahani. After a while the King ordered to build a mansion for her because of his passionate love. Also a part of royal treasury was entrusted to her which was called the special treasury. Every Nowruz she used to invite the King along with his wives and married daughters to her mansion for thirteen days.

At the moment of the King's death, she was beside him in Isfahan and after that she took refuge to Mohammad Bagher Shafti from the princes' clashes for reign.
