Story

All the king's horses, all the king's men, all are silk woven!

From the royal ateliers of Qajar Tehran, a spectacular hunting carpet woven with lush silk highlights. The theme goes back to miniature paintings of the Timurid 15th and Safavid 16th centuries. Very few hunting scene carpets were woven in the Qajar period. The design came into widespread use in the late 20th century, making this historic example a highly collectible piece. Perfect condition, full pile, plus it's the second largest one we have ever seen (and have!). The ruby field combines with the rare emerald green border for a spectacular effect. This artwork on its own will turn any elegant home into a palatial mansion.

The beauty of detail

What our customers say!

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

 

 

Acquiring a piece from my dear friend Hadi is truly a journey. We start that journey with a lesson and detailed background on any piece that is of interest. After a thorough discussion regarding the chosen piece or should I say marvel, since Hadi's pieces are truly marvels, Hadi guides us into why he would advise us to acquire it or go for another of his marvels that would suit us more than the one initially chosen. This sincere advice always makes us feel that we are generously taken care of by Hadi. The learning process and honesty in guidance make us go back only to Hadi whenever we are looking for our next beautiful piece for our homes. All I can say is thank you Hadi for your impeccable guidance and service. Abdullah Al-Awadhi, Kuwait 🇰🇼
