Story

A most unusual carpet from the acclaimed Hajji Jalili school, it depicts a Tree of Life that rises across the central axis. Slightly above the halfway mark is a blue pond, from which spiral out a number of arabesque curls bearing hoopoe birds of Quranic symbolism from the story of Balqis, the Queen of Sheba. The ruby red field is truly attractive, particularly how it is complemented by the brown bark of the tree and the blues of the pond and leaves. The quintessential Hajji Jalili workshop border is on show, executed with finesse and elegance. The proportions are quite unusual suggesting this may have been a special commission.

What our customers say!

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 🇰🇼

 

 

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

 

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 🇱🇧
