Story

Fun and aristocratic at the same time. This is a unique rug for being round. And for being woven in silk with silver thread knotting, in the so-called 𝙨𝙖𝙧𝙒𝙖 technique. As if that all was not enough, just look at the enthralling design and its wonderful motifs!

The central roundel shows an Ottoman aristocratic gent casually puffing at his π™¨π™π™žπ™¨π™π™– (hookah) waterpipe. This calm and serene scene is offset by the dramatic outer circle where a number of royal princes engage in an energetic hunting party.

The outer section is perhaps the most technically accomplished part. Even though it is circular, the edge is crenellated with a series of of in-and-out protrusions. The long tassels dangle out therefore in a radial way.

A most majestic collection piece.

What our customers say!

The idea of purchasing valuable rugs and other artwork online from an overseas seller is daunting for several reasons, not least of which is the fact that, not being able to examine and feel the rug for yourself, you are never entirely certain that the origin, age or condition of the rug corresponds with the dealer’s description. For me, I could never take this step unless I had absolute trust in the integrity of the dealer, and my recent experience with Hadi confirms that my faith in him was well placed. Every detail of the antique rug expertly explained by Hadi was accurate and when I finally received the actual rug, it turned out to be even more stunning than his photos depicted. F.

J’ai fait la connaissance de Hadi lors de la prΓ©paration de l’exposition Β« L’Empire des roses, chefs-d’œuvre de l’art persan du 19Γ¨me siΓ¨cle Β» qui a eu lieu au Louvre-Lens en 2018 et Γ  laquelle il a participΓ© par le prΓͺt de tapis exceptionnels. J’avais alors Γ©tΓ© impressionnΓ©e par ses connaissances et sa passion pour les tapis orientaux. Cette rencontre a marquΓ© le dΓ©but d’une collaboration riche et fructueuse. Elle a notamment permis au musΓ©e du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac de voir ses collections iraniennes s’enrichir de plusieurs tapis et tentures dont certains n’ont pas leur Γ©quivalent dans les musΓ©es occidentaux. Ce que j’apprΓ©cie chez Hadi ? C’est son professionnalisme, son dynamisme et l’engouement qu’il a pour son mΓ©tier !
