This may look like a Sarab and act like one but the weave indicates it is a Malayer type. Two tonalities of camel hair are used, complemented by an exquisite Malayer red. A dozen medallions line up in sequence, punctuated by beautiful boteh motifs. A seductive charmer, once you get to know it first hand. Highly recommended.

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 🇱🇧
