An extremely fine masterpiece, with high silk content, from the brilliant creative mind of Grand Master Sadegh Seirafian. The pattern is known as πππ¨ππ© ππ€π‘ meaning eight flowers, and is of far older Kurdish origin, having come to fame on the remarkably fine part-silk Senneh carpets of the 19th century and earlier. The field is tiled all over with rows and rows of intricate, ornately drawn flowers; each flowers is made up of eight petals, each of which is a curling ππ€π©ππ motif. Absolutely amazing!
Perfect condition.
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!

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 π±π§
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
