Even among the most formidable creations from the royal looms of Tehran, this woven garden is a delight on a higher level. Perfectly preserved, it is a wondrous sight to behold. The lush woodlands and forests, the dense foliage of the trees and the flowers, the allure of the natural world on majestic display.. in a mesmerizing color combination that creates a beautiful dreamscape. The pastel tonality is truly alluring and attractive. Bazar elders with inherited memories say that this carpet depicts the capital city back in the days of Qajar glory, with its imposing mansions laid out amidst lush manicured gardens.
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 🇭🇰
“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 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 🇸🇦
