Some of the finest antique rugs are the rainbow silk warped Senneh carpets. This is an excellent specimen in glorious condition. The palette is unusually soft with pinks and beiges that complement the light and dark blues marvelously. Three outwardly radiating fields of Mahi/Herati pattern emanate from the stark blue medallion, all framed by a lovely pinkish border. It is in perfect shape with original rainbow silk fringes and warps visible across the entire back side. Sublime.
“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 🇸🇦
Purchasing carpets from Hadi Maktabi was the epitome of professionalism and joy. Hadi is an expert curator, purveyor, historian and story teller. His passion, knowledge, professionalism and expertise are evident every step of the way. With a wide range of choices and prices, prompt service, and fast sipping, we had our carpets in Sydney in a matter of days. The ultimate flying carpet experience! Zeina Tebbutt, Sidney, Australia 🇦🇺
