Story

XXL supercharged palatial carpet, designed and signed by the most eminent of all Qajar carpet weavers, Ostad Hossein Kermani. He was handpicked by Nassereddine Shahe Qajar in the 1860s to produce custom designed carpets for the Shah, the Qajar court, and the renovated Golestan Palace in Tehran. The present masterpiece seems to be one of those made for the palace and fits in perfectly with the 2 other surviving examples that are similar. It bears a beautiful and pristine rendition of the soon-to-be-famous ๐—š๐—ผ๐—น ๐—™๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด theme of brilliant blossoming rose flowers, for whose creation and adoption in Persian carpet art Hossein Kermani was solely responsible. It is very hard to attribute a design to one artist, especially prior to the mid 1900s, but in this case he left a hefty trail of evidence behind him.

Museum Grade.

Purchasing carpets from Hadi Maktabi was the epitome of professionalism and joy. Hadi is an expert curator, purveyor, historian and story teller. His passion, knowledge, professionalism and expertise are evident every step of the way. With a wide range of choices and prices, prompt service, and fast sipping, we had our carpets in Sydney in a matter of days. The ultimate flying carpet experience!

Hadi Maktabi and his staff provide comprehensive and thoughtful services to collectors and textile buyers worldwide. His knowledge of antique oriental rugs and textiles, including many fine offerings from the Levant, is unsurpassed. We have been loyal customers for over five years and have visited his Beirut premises. He has worked with us upon several occasions to select the exact Ottoman and Levantine pieces we wanted for our collection. You can be sure of quality and honesty when dealing with Hadi. Penelope and Timothy Hays, Just In From The East Collection, Florida ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

 

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
