Malayer carpets aren't supposed to be this big or this soft in color. In addition to these exceptional properties, our beauty here boasts a remarkable border with calligraphy cartouches with a mighty claim: if all the landscape architects of China (a place of legendary learning to medieval Muslims) were to gather their energy and efforts, they would be hard pressed to create a garden as lush as this carpet. In other words, the carpet is consciously speaking to us and telling us she is a garden carpet!
“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 🇦🇺
“I 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. Hadi’s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.” Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
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 🇱🇧
