The finest quality of Mishan Malayer that was woven in the 19th century with the highest knot count. Such rugs were destined for the mansions of the wealthy elite in the Qajar period and were kept as family heirlooms. This explains how this masterpiece managed to survive in such perfect shape.
The organic dye materials and the wool used in this rug are superb. The artistic expression is confident and impressive, the weaver obviously realized the breadth of her skills.
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
