Story

One of the finest pairs of Kashan that our family has seen. In fact we have not seen a finer pair in the last 20 years. For interwar Persia city carpets--woven in Isfahan, Kashan, Tabriz or Kerman--the most desirable and best selling are always ghaliche sized pairs like these. Especially when their designs are directional and not medallion type.

There is so much to discover and admire in these twin rugs. A cornucopia of flowers emanates from a blossoming vase alongside which two slender trees of life grow upwards as well, all the way up to the peak of the slender mihrab niche. Sublime. Timeless. The fact that they are identical and both in full pile adds enormously to their appeal. How did they both survive?

What our customers say!

“You don’t just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... It’s an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!” Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺

 

 

To me personally there is no surprise, event or frankly anything that gets me more excited than the purchase of a treasured piece of understated artwork such as that of a proper vintage/antique carpet. The sourcing, grading and authentication of these pieces is no small task but is of the highest importance. Through the respected dealer Hadi Maktabi all that is guaranteed, and rest assured the one thing I can guarantee personally as a client is a first class service from the initial selection process till it gets delivered right to your door step. It was an undeniably special experience, with hundreds of carpets to choose from, will definitely be visiting again. Thank you dear Hadi. Habeeb Al Monawer, Kuwait 🇰🇼

 

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 🇭🇰
