Stop press! A world beater of a rug here.
This is a miraculously preserved historical artwork that is over 200 years old. The masterpiece is dated 1230 Hijri at the very top. It was woven in the same year that Napoleon lost the Battle of Waterloo to the Duke of Wellington, to put it in perspective. It is closer to Shakespeare's time than it is to ours.
Of Sauj Bulagh workmanship, it boasts the famously brilliant natural dyes that those Kurdish weavers cooked up so excellently. The Herati pattern is show in here in full bloom, generously spaced, confidently arranged, and breathtakingly alluring. Equally decorative as it is important, this is a museum quality historical carpet that will grace and boost any private collection.
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
βI 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. Hadiβs collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.β Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia πΈπ¦
βYou donβt just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... Itβs an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!β Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, Australia π¦πΊ
