Story

Grand Master Safa Zadeh of Kashan & the eternal charm of the architectural prayer rug

I just love how the mehrab architectural niche incorporates design ornaments from what would usually be the central medallion of a Safa Zadeh Kashan. Sublime, unadulterated, pure genius.

Please observe and admire the various artistic elements in the architecture (columns, lantern, vase) and the naturalistic motifs (flowers, shrubs, flowers). How stupefyingly gorgeous are they?

NB/PS actual Persian urban workshop prayer carpets are pretty rare. There are many mehrab patterns, very few of which actually have real prayer design or usage.

Safa Zadeh is arguably the most accomplished Kashani artist, Dabir aside, of the Reza Shah period (1925-1941),

Super perfect condition

What our customers say!

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 πŸ‡­πŸ‡°

 

 

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. Penelope and Timothy Hays, Just In From The East Collection, Florida πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

 

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 πŸ‡±πŸ‡§
