Story

This carpet is woven from exactly the same cartoon as a pure silk rug signed by the elusive master weaver Molla Mohammad Hasan Mohtasham, currently in a private German collection. This leads us to conclude, given its remarkable finesse and above all the stunning 🤩 softness of the Kork wool, that this masterpiece was woven in the Mohtasham workshop. It is not a 'school of Mohtasham' weave but the real deal 👌
Depicted we see Nader Shah Afshar enthroned and giving audience. A cartouche above his head states his name and informs us that the carpet was commissioned by a certain Hajji Mirza, in itself another clue that this was an order from the famous master himself.

What our customers say!

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 🇰🇼

 

 

“I 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 🇸🇦

 

“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 🇦🇺
