Story

Mamma mia.
Let's start with the 𝘀𝘰𝘢𝘱 π˜₯𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘒𝘀𝘦: the Hijri date 1250 (1833) inscribed at the top right corner of the border. Speaking of which: what manner of insane folk artistry could create such an ornate and refined Nastaliq poetry all within the narrow confines of such a border? Calligraphic art at its best, but created with knots and not with a pen.

This is museum quality 𝘱𝘒𝘳 𝘦𝘹𝘀𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘀𝘦. The plain 𝘬𝘒𝘧 𝘴𝘒π˜₯𝘦𝘩 blood 🩸 red field is amply complimented by the midnight blue indigo spandrels and the parchment creme in the border cartouches. Sublime weaving quality and high knot count for a Queen B.

What our customers say!

As a carpet collector of 30 years, I have noticed a decline in the amount of truly unique and high quality carpets on the market. I have also noted a decline in the knowledge of merchants, generally. Hadi Maktabi stands against this trend as a both a curator for and an educator of his clients. His offerings are well-researched, museum quality carpets that are both singular and expertly chosen. In dealing with Hadi, I have experienced excellent communication, a high standard of service and extremely pleasant interactions. Warren D., Hong Kong πŸ‡­πŸ‡°

 

 

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! Zeina Tebbutt, Sidney, Australia πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί

 

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 πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
