Story

A dizzyingly beautiful and incredibly rare pair of antique Saruk 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘩𝘡π˜ͺ rugs depicting the mythical founder of Persian kingship, Houshang Shah. He is mentioned in Ferdowsi's π™Žπ™π™–π™π™£π™–π™’π™šπ™ epic poem and the rugs here are truly epic in their own right.

Chunky, full pile with juicy, exuberant natural dyes featuring an unconventional golden yellow and a sweet salmon pink. Original end finishes. The drawing is quite remarkable too, especially the uniform, medals and crown of the Shah.

What our customers say!

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 πŸ‡­πŸ‡°

 

 

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 πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

 

You can't only be a customer of Hadi Maktabi. While his main purpose is rug dealing, he starts with story telling and ends with history selling. That's what I call high-end art curating and closing it all with an entertaining friendship. George El Hani, CEO Levica, Lebanon πŸ‡±πŸ‡§
