A mind enhancing antique tribal rug woven with camel hair. The action all takes place along the vertical axis, where a sequence of medallions and lozenges are stringed together. Alongside them we see mysterious riders on horses and other saddled horses that are riderless. Going upwards we see two inscription cartouches with the dates 1312 and 1313 and then some animals. Right at the top, crowning the entire composition, there is a signature cartouche.
One of the most beautiful and rarest of all tribal runners we have encountered.
“You don’t just buy a rug from Dr Maktabi... It’s an experience, a rich one! You learn about history, culture & art. And more importantly you feel euphoric!” Dr Siamak Abolhassani, Expert Medical Care Clinics, Victoria, 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 🇱🇧
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 🇦🇺
