Story

Comrades, for our Armenian friends all around the world, we present you with another unique historical artwork. A brilliant antique Serapi Heriz emblazoned with the heraldic symbols of the ๐—”๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐——๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฐ ๐—›๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ธ ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜๐˜†.

It is dated 1887 (Julian or Gregorian).
The party name is inscribed as follows:

Social (bottom)
Democratic (right)
Hunchak (above ๐Ÿ””)
Party (left)

The SDHP is the oldest Armenian political party in the world; also the oldest/first socialist party to be active in the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) and Persia (Iran). It was founded in Geneva and the takes its name from the Armenian word for โ€˜bellโ€™ (signifying national awakening). Despite its political ideology it openly retains a clear cut Armenian identity by virtue of the religious cross emblazoned in the center between the hammer and the sickle.

This is a very important document for Armenian history and Near Eastern political history. The weave is very refined. I am quite impressed the SDHP commissioned a Serapi Heriz workshop to create this!

What our customers say!

The idea of purchasing valuable rugs and other artwork online from an overseas seller is daunting for several reasons, not least of which is the fact that, not being able to examine and feel the rug for yourself, you are never entirely certain that the origin, age or condition of the rug corresponds with the dealerโ€™s description. For me, I could never take this step unless I had absolute trust in the integrity of the dealer, and my recent experience with Hadi confirms that my faith in him was well placed. Every detail of the antique rug expertly explained by Hadi was accurate and when I finally received the actual rug, it turned out to be even more stunning than his photos depicted. F. Alsagoff, Singapore

 

 

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

 

Acquiring a piece from my dear friend Hadi is truly a journey. We start that journey with a lesson and detailed background on any piece that is of interest. After a thorough discussion regarding the chosen piece or should I say marvel, since Hadi's pieces are truly marvels, Hadi guides us into why he would advise us to acquire it or go for another of his marvels that would suit us more than the one initially chosen. This sincere advice always makes us feel that we are generously taken care of by Hadi. The learning process and honesty in guidance make us go back only to Hadi whenever we are looking for our next beautiful piece for our homes. All I can say is thank you Hadi for your impeccable guidance and service. Abdullah Al-Awadhi, Kuwait ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ผ
