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 ๐’๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฏ๐š๐ซ๐ข 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 ๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ฎ-๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฉ. All perfect condition with full pile and full end kilims and fringes.

What our customers say!

Acquiring a piece from my dear friend Hadi is truly a journey. We start that journey with a lesson and detailed background on any piece that is of interest. After a thorough discussion regarding the chosen piece or should I say marvel, since Hadi's pieces are truly marvels, Hadi guides us into why he would advise us to acquire it or go for another of his marvels that would suit us more than the one initially chosen. This sincere advice always makes us feel that we are generously taken care of by Hadi. The learning process and honesty in guidance make us go back only to Hadi whenever we are looking for our next beautiful piece for our homes. All I can say is thank you Hadi for your impeccable guidance and service. Abdullah Al-Awadhi, Kuwait ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ผ

 

 

I first met Dr. Maktabi as a lecturer on carpet history and was captivated by his passion for the subject. Only later I knew him as a dealer, though even in our financial transactions, Hadi has been a gentle guide and friend. He has understood my taste and interests and made wonderful suggestions, but never in a pushy way. That is to say I have enjoyed working with him on several levels and wish to continue our excellent relations and dealings far into the future. A. Harvey Pincis, formerly Dar Al Athar Al Islamiyyah Museum (Kuwait), Latvia ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ป

 

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
