Is this real? A unique pair of antique Kurdish kilim runners with ancient fertility symbolism.
The dye materials are outstanding especially the apricot. The fact that it’s a pair of runner kilims is quite special too. However nothing beats the sequence of clearly drawn ladies with their wombs showing within. It’s fascinating to note that the only other thing along them are stars indicating that woman, indeed, is the essence of the universe and source of all life ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️
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 🇱🇧
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
“You don’t just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... It’s an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!” Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺
