This is one of the finest rugs signed by the legendary Grand Master Mohammad Dabir Al Sanaye of Kashan. It is exquisitely crafted from start to finish, with the finest Kork Manchester baby lambswool and a splendid range of the sweetest natural dyes.
Aesthetically, the all over Shah Abbas pattern of palmettes and floral forms is designed and arranged in a most impressive manner. The detailing of the motifs and absolute richness of the overall design are overwhelming.
A truly collectible gem of the highest order.
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
Hadi Maktabi and his staff provide comprehensive and thoughtful services to collectors and textile buyers worldwide. His knowledge of antique oriental rugs and textiles, including many fine offerings from the Levant, is unsurpassed. We have been loyal customers for over five years and have visited his Beirut premises. He has worked with us upon several occasions to select the exact Ottoman and Levantine pieces we wanted for our collection. You can be sure of quality and honesty when dealing with Hadi.

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 π±π§
