Size 305 x 157
Age 1895
Even though the floral forms are geometrically rendered, the dating of 1895 in clear numerals is important because it gives us a solid marker to date other Karabagh flower rugs of this vintage. The calendar system used indicates this was an Armenian production. The pile is full and the handle quite solid, beautifully executed weave from the height of the Romanov era.
“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 🇦🇺
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 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 🇱🇧
