Story

A truly beautiful and very rare pair of antique Kashans. A very early one too. It is outstanding and unusual for many reasons.
- The creme whitish tones
- The understated ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฉ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ prayer niche
- The identically colored spandrels above it
- The soft Manchester Kork wool used by Dabir
- The detailed and rich imagery of the motifs, far finer and more precise than later Kashan pairs of the 1920s and 1930s

What our customers say!

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. Harvey Pincis, formerly Dar Al Athar Al Islamiyyah Museum (Kuwait), Latvia ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ป

 

 

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 ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง

 

Jโ€™ai fait la connaissance de Hadi lors de la prรฉparation de lโ€™exposition ยซ Lโ€™Empire des roses, chefs-dโ€™ล“uvre de lโ€™art persan du 19รจme siรจcle ยป qui a eu lieu au Louvre-Lens en 2018 et ร  laquelle il a participรฉ par le prรชt de tapis exceptionnels. Jโ€™avais alors รฉtรฉ impressionnรฉe par ses connaissances et sa passion pour les tapis orientaux. Cette rencontre a marquรฉ le dรฉbut dโ€™une collaboration riche et fructueuse. Elle a notamment permis au musรฉe du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac de voir ses collections iraniennes sโ€™enrichir de plusieurs tapis et tentures dont certains nโ€™ont pas leur รฉquivalent dans les musรฉes occidentaux. Ce que jโ€™apprรฉcie chez Hadi ? Cโ€™est son professionnalisme, son dynamisme et lโ€™engouement quโ€™il a pour son mรฉtier ! Hana Chidiac, Curator of the Middle East Department at the Musee Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, Paris, France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท
