This museum grade historical piece was woven in the Tehran Girls School as the inscription cartouche indicates. It is one of very very few surviving rugs bearing an authentic Tehran signature. The endless pattern of starry medallions would go on to influence the Ahmad school of Isfahan. Very sweet pale blue tones.
The rug is dated 1340 Hijri and it is number 32 produced in the school's weaving workshop. Girl power!
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!

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§
βYou donβt just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... Itβs an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!β Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia π¦πΊ
