Yep. This is the most incredible vagireh I have seen, certainly in terms of ambition and design complexity. 20 individual designs for field and border are on display here, across a Dozar sized 2 sqm rug. So many familiar styles are lined up here. Including 3 different variations of the Mahi pattern. And bewildering options for border patterns and--amazingly--minor guard styles. A collector's gem and a historical object which reads like an A2Z manual of 19th century rug design.
You can't only be a customer of Hadi Maktabi. While his main purpose is rug dealing, he starts with story telling and ends with history selling. That's what I call high-end art curating and closing it all with an entertaining friendship. George El Hani, CEO Levica, Lebanon 🇱🇧
“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 🇸🇦
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
