An unusually small Heriz rug with attractive abrash across its field, all the way from baby blue to sky blue then navy blue. Such sprawling patterns, leafy and sporadic, are termed π«ππππ§ππ in Persian, explaining the etymology of the commonly used word for 'sampler'. It is debatable whether the present carpet, beautiful and irrepressible as it is, is actually a sampler. It has a truly unique visual and frankly odd size.
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§
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. Penelope and Timothy Hays, Just In From The East Collection, Florida πΊπΈ
