Right. Where do we start? We have the repeated scenes of animals comically devouring each other. How about the Dragon 🐉 gobbling up a nest of birds, tree and all? Or the lionesses attacking the deer 🦌? If you look closely you will notice that the contours of the medallion are actually made up of four double headed dragons. Each of its pendants depicts what look to be a pair of bears 🐻 smoking opium pipes. Wtf 😳 honestly. To me the most remarkable details lie in the corner elements where mustachioed wrestlers in skirts or shorts seem to be waltzing together while facing the viewer 🤼♀️🤼♀️🤼🤼
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
