A breathtakingly vivacious Khorasan animal menagerie carpet. Woven in the Qajar district of Qaenat for the feudal Alam dynasty who gave the carpet world so much. Younger rugs of this vintage, produced as of the 1870s, would be known as Dorokhsh. Please refer to my book for details.

Mint, perfect, all original.
180 years old and rocking hard.
Woven b4 the invention of chemical dyes! Can you believe the outrageous colors?

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

Hadi Maktabi and his staff provide comprehensive and thoughtful services to collectors and textile buyers worldwide. His knowledge of antique oriental rugs and textiles, including many fine offerings from the Levant, is unsurpassed. We have been loyal customers for over five years and have visited his Beirut premises. He has worked with us upon several occasions to select the exact Ottoman and Levantine pieces we wanted for our collection. You can be sure of quality and honesty when dealing with Hadi.
