Before there was Hereke, the Ottoman Sultans offered patronage to the royal Feshane workshop in Istanbul itself. The name means ππ€πͺπ¨π π€π πππ¨ after the famous Moroccan city and its famous hats. You guessed it: the famous Ottoman Tarboush hats π© were made in Feshane with fabulous merinos wool. And thatβs where the carpets of the 19th century Ottoman palaces came from. Sultan Mahmud IIβthe great Ottoman reformerβestablished the Feshane weaving factory in 1833 (193 years ago!) in Istanbul.
Hereβs a grandiose example of what the tasteful folks there were up to. Like this azure stunner. With its dramatic open field and gorgeous reds. Enjoy. Youβre welcome π

I must say this one of the most enriching carpet purchase experiences I ever had. This was not a mere transaction but more an experience about art and history. Dr Maktabi's experience and knowledge in this space is second to none. Highly recommended! R.A., Doha, Qatar
βI 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. Hadiβs collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.β Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia πΈπ¦
