I give you the most spectacular antique Garrus in the most amazing condition and with the most beautiful glowing colors. Truly outstanding and brilliantly breathtaking. The Pardeh size for Garrus rugs is incredibly rare.

But not only thatβ a breathtaking vagireh sampler, also woven in Garrus with the infamous Garrus arabesque design, that matches the glorious pardeh most splendidly. It is posted under the Vagireh heading on this website.
For lovers & collectors of antique and tribal rugs β does it ever get more exciting than this duo?
I first met Dr. Maktabi as a lecturer on carpet history and was captivated by his passion for the subject. Only later I knew him as a dealer, though even in our financial transactions, Hadi has been a gentle guide and friend. He has understood my taste and interests and made wonderful suggestions, but never in a pushy way. That is to say I have enjoyed working with him on several levels and wish to continue our excellent relations and dealings far into the future. A.

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
