Story

It is hard to ignore the regal presence of this attractive and highly unusual antique Bijar sampler. The ๐™ƒ๐™š๐™ง๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž field is calm and serene .. and suddenly there rises the most magnificent, gigantic leafy form. In Bijar area carpets, we see this motif feature as a pendant dangling from either end of a sprawling medallion. It originally derives from the Bourbon ๐™๐™ก๐™š๐™ช๐™ง ๐™™๐™š ๐™‡๐™ฎ๐™จ emblem, which featured on the royal banner of French kings for centuries. Here it serves as a single, independent motif in its own right which imparts it tremendous dramatic appeal. The extra end borders at top and bottom are quirky features on vagirehs from this provenance.

Wool and wool, Garrus type end kilim sumakh work. Irresistible.

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 ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ฐ

 

 

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

 

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 ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง
