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!

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 !

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

 

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‡°
