Story

Most excellent, most impressive, most charming.

An intact Malayer from the 1800s in perfect condition and irresistible beauty. What is most appealing instantaneously is the ivory colored plain field, with undyed wool and full of Sufi mystical connotations. It complements the reds of the motifs (with indigo detailing) especially when you notice the plain white strips either side of the main border.

This handsome design is called 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐢 due to the crenellated undulations of the medallion, resembling a samovar tea pot. Most attractive.

The size is somewhat larger than usual, a so called 𝘯𝘪𝘮-𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘩. All perfect condition with full pile and full end kilims and fringes.

What our customers say!

“I practically furnished my entire home with carpets from Hadi. The process was not only a joy but it was also a learning experience for me. Hadi was super helpful in identifying the right pieces for my home that would both work with my taste, budget, sizes required and that would be a good investment for my family. Hadi’s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.” Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

 

 

J’ai fait la connaissance de Hadi lors de la préparation de l’exposition « L’Empire des roses, chefs-d’œuvre de l’art persan du 19ème siècle » qui a eu lieu au Louvre-Lens en 2018 et à laquelle il a participé par le prêt de tapis exceptionnels. J’avais alors été impressionnée par ses connaissances et sa passion pour les tapis orientaux. Cette rencontre a marqué le début d’une collaboration riche et fructueuse. Elle a notamment permis au musée du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac de voir ses collections iraniennes s’enrichir de plusieurs tapis et tentures dont certains n’ont pas leur équivalent dans les musées occidentaux. Ce que j’apprécie chez Hadi ? C’est son professionnalisme, son dynamisme et l’engouement qu’il a pour son métier ! Hana Chidiac, Curator of the Middle East Department at the Musee Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, Paris, France 🇫🇷
