Story

The split leaf arabesque carpets seen here are associated with the famous rugs of Garrus around Bijar. Four original examples are signed and dated, of which one stellar piece is in our private collection. They were all commissioned by Ali Qoli Khan Garrusi, the governor of Garrus and commander in chief of the Qajar armies. That means he would have spent ample time in Tehran which in turn explains how this pattern wound up becoming a favorite of the royal looms there. This accomplished masterpiece is in perfect condition, woven with very fine wool and resplendent with silk highlights. Quite the luxurious item. The natural dyes are splendidly saturated attractive.

What our customers say!

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 🇰🇼
