Story

The Amoghly brothers are the single most important and famous carpet weavers in the entirety of Persian carpet history, with a royal warrant from Reza Shah (1925-1941) for all the Pahlavi palaces. Their carpets were notoriously large as a result and generally ornate and complex in design. This exceptional piece is a quite the exception. It belongs to their experimental phase in the late 1930s and early 1940s when they launched a line of Art Deco style carpets that were, to the Oriental eye, shockingly minimalist and abstract. This is why they are so desirable and collectible nowadays. The Amoghly signature floats next to one of the set of triple booths in opposing corners: simple, direct and powerful.

The beauty of detail

What our customers say!

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 🇭🇰

 

 

To me personally there is no surprise, event or frankly anything that gets me more excited than the purchase of a treasured piece of understated artwork such as that of a proper vintage/antique carpet. The sourcing, grading and authentication of these pieces is no small task but is of the highest importance. Through the respected dealer Hadi Maktabi all that is guaranteed, and rest assured the one thing I can guarantee personally as a client is a first class service from the initial selection process till it gets delivered right to your door step. It was an undeniably special experience, with hundreds of carpets to choose from, will definitely be visiting again. Thank you dear Hadi. Habeeb Al Monawer, Kuwait 🇰🇼

 

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 🇱🇧
