Story

Exquisite. A tribal collector's dream, this pair of ultra ultra fine 𝘀𝘩𝘒𝘯𝘡𝘦𝘩 vanity bags take my breath away every time I get them out of the chest to look at them. They were woven with love and affection, most likely as a dowry piece by a young bride. The long tassels are beautifully braided with fluffy pompoms. The sumakh flat weave is boisterous in its energetic colors, a testament to the awesomeness of the natural organic dyes and the fantastic good taste with which they were chosen. At first sight they looked Shahsavan to me but the structure felt Qashqai. Later on I learnt they belong to a group of Shahsavan folk who migrated southwards and dwelled among the Qashqai, thus explaining the fusion of style and structure. They are known as Baghdadi for some reason in the old trade.

What our customers say!

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 πŸ‡±πŸ‡§

 

 

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 πŸ‡­πŸ‡°

 

β€œI 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 πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¦
