Story

It is hard to ignore the regal presence of this attractive and highly unusual antique Bijar sampler. The ๐™ƒ๐™š๐™ง๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž field is calm and serene .. and suddenly there rises the most magnificent, gigantic leafy form. In Bijar area carpets, we see this motif feature as a pendant dangling from either end of a sprawling medallion. It originally derives from the Bourbon ๐™๐™ก๐™š๐™ช๐™ง ๐™™๐™š ๐™‡๐™ฎ๐™จ emblem, which featured on the royal banner of French kings for centuries. Here it serves as a single, independent motif in its own right which imparts it tremendous dramatic appeal. The extra end borders at top and bottom are quirky features on vagirehs from this provenance.

Wool and wool, Garrus type end kilim sumakh work. Irresistible.

What our customers say!

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 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ

 

 

The idea of purchasing valuable rugs and other artwork online from an overseas seller is daunting for several reasons, not least of which is the fact that, not being able to examine and feel the rug for yourself, you are never entirely certain that the origin, age or condition of the rug corresponds with the dealerโ€™s description. For me, I could never take this step unless I had absolute trust in the integrity of the dealer, and my recent experience with Hadi confirms that my faith in him was well placed. Every detail of the antique rug expertly explained by Hadi was accurate and when I finally received the actual rug, it turned out to be even more stunning than his photos depicted. F. Alsagoff, Singapore

 

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 ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง
