This dreamy Persian carpet answers the time old question succinctly: why are Seirafian rugs considered to be the best to be made in the mid to late 20th century?
This timeless classic boasts an unusual and attractive camel-honey tone. The famous Seirafian Eslimi pattern is in full bloom here, perfectly poised and elegantly executed. The knot count is quite high too. Silk foundation and silk flowers throughout.
Grand Master Mojtaba is the son of the legendary Grand Master Mohamamd Seirafian, himself the son of the founder of the weaving dynasty, Haj Reza.
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 🇦🇺
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 🇱🇧
As a carpet collector of 30 years, I have noticed a decline in the amount of truly unique and high quality carpets on the market. I have also noted a decline in the knowledge of merchants, generally. Hadi Maktabi stands against this trend as a both a curator for and an educator of his clients. His offerings are well-researched, museum quality carpets that are both singular and expertly chosen. In dealing with Hadi, I have experienced excellent communication, a high standard of service and extremely pleasant interactions. Warren D., Hong Kong 🇭🇰
