Story

Gorgeous antique Baluch 𝙉𝙖𝙒𝙖𝙠𝙙𝙖𝙣 saltbox used for storing one of the most precious commodities in the pre modern world: salt.

It's a functional artifact of powerful beauty and irrepressible charm. Note the extent of the effort the weaver went to, with each face having a radically different design.

Complete & intact with lustrous, ultra soft lambswool and deeply saturated natural dyes.

Highly collectible -- one of the best examples I have handled.

What our customers say!

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 πŸ‡°πŸ‡Ό

 

 

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
