Pairs of tribal rugs are very few and far between. This is the only Afshar pair I have come across and I love it. What makes them more unique is the fact that they are a mirror pair, meaning when placed alongside each other the pattern is reflected as if by a lake or a mirror πͺ
The quality of natural dyes is amazing, especially when you focus on the center and corners. The midnight blue field frames a flowering vase with ππ°π π° ππ°ππ£π°π iconography. A melodious nightingale is perched among colorful flowers of various delightful hues. The attention to detail and skill of execution is impressive, especially when you realize there is no symmetry in the flower bouquet.
To be sold as a pair.
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
Purchasing carpets from Hadi Maktabi was the epitome of professionalism and joy. Hadi is an expert curator, purveyor, historian and story teller. His passion, knowledge, professionalism and expertise are evident every step of the way. With a wide range of choices and prices, prompt service, and fast sipping, we had our carpets in Sydney in a matter of days. The ultimate flying carpet experience!

βI practically furnished my entire home with carpets from Hadi. The process was not only a joy but it was also a learning experience for me. Hadi was super helpful in identifying the right pieces for my home that would both work with my taste, budget, sizes required and that would be a good investment for my family. Hadiβs collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.β Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia πΈπ¦
