Story

An attractive and frankly more colorful variant of the royal Millefleurs style popular on court woven Tehran carpets in the 19th century. The cypress tree at the center of the composition is larger and more eye-catching than usual. I quite love the flower bouquets in the vases alongside it. All around, the field is filled with further flowery delights and beautiful scenery. The mehrab niche has a rather unique shape to it. Its spandrels and the base of the design are quite geometric in a pointillist way, presenting us with a happy marriage of the abstract with the floral.

Mint condition, full pile, all original.

J’ai fait la connaissance de Hadi lors de la prΓ©paration de l’exposition Β« L’Empire des roses, chefs-d’œuvre de l’art persan du 19Γ¨me siΓ¨cle Β» qui a eu lieu au Louvre-Lens en 2018 et Γ  laquelle il a participΓ© par le prΓͺt de tapis exceptionnels. J’avais alors Γ©tΓ© impressionnΓ©e par ses connaissances et sa passion pour les tapis orientaux. Cette rencontre a marquΓ© le dΓ©but d’une collaboration riche et fructueuse. Elle a notamment permis au musΓ©e du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac de voir ses collections iraniennes s’enrichir de plusieurs tapis et tentures dont certains n’ont pas leur Γ©quivalent dans les musΓ©es occidentaux. Ce que j’apprΓ©cie chez Hadi ? C’est son professionnalisme, son dynamisme et l’engouement qu’il a pour son mΓ©tier ! Hana Chidiac, Curator of the Middle East Department at the Musee Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, Paris, France πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

 

 

As a carpet collector of 30 years, I have noticed a decline in the amount of truly unique and high quality carpets on the market. I have also noted a decline in the knowledge of merchants, generally. Hadi Maktabi stands against this trend as a both a curator for and an educator of his clients. His offerings are well-researched, museum quality carpets that are both singular and expertly chosen. In dealing with Hadi, I have experienced excellent communication, a high standard of service and extremely pleasant interactions. Warren D., Hong Kong πŸ‡­πŸ‡°

 

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
