Story

Hekmat Nejad Majnouni is the most enigmatic, sought after and famous carpet artist of the last century. He was the favourite carpet weaver for the last Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi (1941-1979) ๐Ÿคด much as the Amoghly Bros were for Reza Shah Pahlavi (1925-1941). Ostad Hekmat Nejad was so dedicated to his art that his peers called him 'Majnouni' (lit. crazy!)-- an epithet he proudly adopted. He did not create many carpets, far fewer than any of the individual Seirafian brothers, but he made sure each was as special as it gets. To put it in perspective this is only the 6th HKM I have had in 25 years. His finest moment was when the Shah commissioned some super awesome carpets from him for the 1971 Persepolis commemoration of 2,500 years of Persian kingship.

What our customers say!

โ€œYou donโ€™t just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... Itโ€™s an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!โ€ Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

 

 

โ€œI practically furnished my entire home with carpets from Hadi. The process was not only a joy but it was also a learning experience for me. Hadi was super helpful in identifying the right pieces for my home that would both work with my taste, budget, sizes required and that would be a good investment for my family. Hadiโ€™s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.โ€ Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

 

As a carpet collector of 30 years, I have noticed a decline in the amount of truly unique and high quality carpets on the market. I have also noted a decline in the knowledge of merchants, generally. Hadi Maktabi stands against this trend as a both a curator for and an educator of his clients. His offerings are well-researched, museum quality carpets that are both singular and expertly chosen. In dealing with Hadi, I have experienced excellent communication, a high standard of service and extremely pleasant interactions. Warren D., Hong Kong ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ฐ
