Story

A remarkable artwork by the legendary Grand Master Aboulghassem (Abu Al Qasim) of Kermani, acclaimed by his peers as the "Master of Masters". His signature remains one of the 3 or 4 most famous and desirable across the entire history of Persian carpets. This example is a stunning example of the so-called "Empire Des Roses" style influenced by the French court of Napoleon III. A field of gol farang roses is centered by a Venetian landscape with gondolas and ducks, with four cameos portraying topless noble ladies. A unique occurrence among Oriental rugs.

What our customers say!

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!

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 🇱🇧

 

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.
