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!

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!

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 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
