The best qualities of Kerman Ravar weaving are on show here, in this attractive pictorial masterpiece. High knotting density and a gorgeous Millefleurs backdrop offer a dramatic foundation for the pictorial Omar Khayyam scene in the middle.
Beautiful colors, with the much loved Kerman greens and sky blues that are not that easy to find, and a fine weave combine for a highly successful artwork. The finesse of craftsmanship is evident in the razor thin warps at each end, with full kilim component and lush, long fringes dangling out.
Perfect condition, signed and dated by the master artist
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
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!
