Story

A historic antique carpet woven by the nomads of the southern Caucasian Khanates in the interregnum between the downfall of the Safavid and Afsharid dynasties in Persia and the rise of the Romanov Russian Empire in the lands between the Caspian and Black Seas.

Kelleh in format, large in size, and remarkably well balanced and spaced out in design. A highly collectible carpet with outstanding natural dyes. It belongs to the ๐˜ผ๐™›๐™จ๐™๐™–๐™ฃ group of carpets whose design was formulated and coalesced during the course of the 1700s. For further info, please refer to chapter 5 of my book.

What our customers say!

โ€œI 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. Hadiโ€™s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.โ€ Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

 

 

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! Zeina Tebbutt, Sidney, Australia ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

 

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
