Story

The silk wefted rugs woven by the Kashkuli clan are considered to be the finest and most desirable of all tribal carpet. They invariably come in so-called ghaliche size, averaging just under 2 meters in length. It is highly uncommon to see khorjin saddlebags being woven in this technique. This pair is one of only two such part silk Qashqai bags I have seen. Extremely fine to the touch, it makes you wonder whether they were purely ceremonial or whether they ever made it onto the back of a mule or a horse!

“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 🇸🇦

 

To me personally there is no surprise, event or frankly anything that gets me more excited than the purchase of a treasured piece of understated artwork such as that of a proper vintage/antique carpet. The sourcing, grading and authentication of these pieces is no small task but is of the highest importance. Through the respected dealer Hadi Maktabi all that is guaranteed, and rest assured the one thing I can guarantee personally as a client is a first class service from the initial selection process till it gets delivered right to your door step. It was an undeniably special experience, with hundreds of carpets to choose from, will definitely be visiting again. Thank you dear Hadi. Habeeb Al Monawer, Kuwait 🇰🇼
