Museum quality historical masterpiece with provenance and history inscribed in the formidable signature cartouche. One of a half dozen in different designs commissioned in the 1890s by Sultan Abdul Hamid IIโ€™s government for the Ottoman Pavilion at the landmark Paris World Expo. A comparable prayer rug from the same exclusive royal order was formerly in the collection of the Ottoman businessman Calouste Gulbenkian and currently is on display at the Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon.

This is the first of the 6 to become available on the market for way over a century. Took me 4 years to finally acquire this 125 year old turquoise belle. When it was made the USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ was only 124 years old and Istanbul was still officially called Constantinople.

What our customers say!

Hadi Maktabi and his staff provide comprehensive and thoughtful services to collectors and textile buyers worldwide. His knowledge of antique oriental rugs and textiles, including many fine offerings from the Levant, is unsurpassed. We have been loyal customers for over five years and have visited his Beirut premises. He has worked with us upon several occasions to select the exact Ottoman and Levantine pieces we wanted for our collection. You can be sure of quality and honesty when dealing with Hadi. Penelope and Timothy Hays, Just In From The East Collection, Florida ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

 

 

โ€œYou donโ€™t just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... Itโ€™s an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!โ€ Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

 

โ€œI practically furnished my entire home with carpets from Hadi. The process was not only a joy but it was also a learning experience for me. Hadi was super helpful in identifying the right pieces for my home that would both work with my taste, budget, sizes required and that would be a good investment for my family. Hadiโ€™s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.โ€ Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฆ
