Story

This is the oldest and largest work of Grand Master Mohammad Dabir Al Sanaye' that I have seen. Carpets bearing his (authentic) signature are extremely important and collectible, marking a turning point in Persian carpet design.

This masterpiece has one of the earliest incarnations of what would come to be known as the signature "classical Kashan" style of central medallion on a sea of lotus flowers. However, it does so with style by incorporating two royal Qajar crowns. This indicates it may have been a commission for one of the palaces or princes of the ruling dynasty. The quality of the Manchester Kork wool is buttery fine as you would expect.

Perfect condition. A landmark moment in Persian carpet history. A dream. No other way to say it.

What our customers say!

The idea of purchasing valuable rugs and other artwork online from an overseas seller is daunting for several reasons, not least of which is the fact that, not being able to examine and feel the rug for yourself, you are never entirely certain that the origin, age or condition of the rug corresponds with the dealer’s description. For me, I could never take this step unless I had absolute trust in the integrity of the dealer, and my recent experience with Hadi confirms that my faith in him was well placed. Every detail of the antique rug expertly explained by Hadi was accurate and when I finally received the actual rug, it turned out to be even more stunning than his photos depicted. F. Alsagoff, Singapore

 

 

“I 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. Hadi’s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.” Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

 

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.
