Story

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 🤼‍♀️🤼‍♀️🤼🤼

The beauty of detail

What our customers say!

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 🇰🇼

 

 

I first met Dr. Maktabi as a lecturer on carpet history and was captivated by his passion for the subject. Only later I knew him as a dealer, though even in our financial transactions, Hadi has been a gentle guide and friend. He has understood my taste and interests and made wonderful suggestions, but never in a pushy way. That is to say I have enjoyed working with him on several levels and wish to continue our excellent relations and dealings far into the future. A.
