An early and unusually large masterpiece from the famed Seirafian workshop in Isfahan, this carpet stands out for its rich ornamentation and imposing dimensions. Most of their production, especially early on from the 1930s to the 1960s, consisted of ghaliche size rugs averaging 2 meters length. The scale of this is gigantic in comparison. It is in 100% superb condition with vegetable dyes and significant silk highlights. The fringes are complete and made of silk. Persian carpet collectors will be hard pressed finding a better example of signed master weaver art.
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 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 🇦🇺
