One of the finest tribal rugs we have had, it ticks all the right boxes:
- extra fine weave
- generous pardeh size
- high quality natural dyes
- soft handle and plush handspun wool
- perfect condition with full pile, full fringes and complete end kilims
We see a beautiful layout with 3 medallions bearing pomegranate fruits, an ancient symbol of fertility and plentifulness. The field is lined with rows and rows of rosettes, perfectly matched in harmonious colors together. The flanks of the field have a pleasant striped design.
“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 🇸🇦
Purchasing carpets from Hadi Maktabi was the epitome of professionalism and joy. Hadi is an expert curator, purveyor, historian and story teller. His passion, knowledge, professionalism and expertise are evident every step of the way. With a wide range of choices and prices, prompt service, and fast sipping, we had our carpets in Sydney in a matter of days. The ultimate flying carpet experience! Zeina Tebbutt, Sidney, Australia 🇦🇺
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
