Age 1860
Heartwarming and soulful, this is a really old Bakhshayesh from the 1860s. The fact that it has wool warps confirms the early age and lends it a delightful feel. The allover Mahi Herati style really works great on this light background. If you zoom in you will be awed by the spectacular natural dyes on display. Gorgeous greens, beautiful blues, pretty pinks.. all surrounded by a yummy yellow border. This antique rug is ideal for decorative purposes in a dining room, say, or an organic communal area. Works wonderfully with woods and leathers.
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 🇱🇧
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 🇦🇺
