Story

Quite a puzzler. A very rare and exclusive antique Tehran in the collectible 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘩𝘵𝘪 square format. Woven in the 3D Soof Barjasteh technique with a carved out metal thread field with metallic wefts, and an embossed pile-knotted field. Very intricate, very challenging to weave, very hard to achieve.

This is also one of a handful of rugs in the world that are signed "Tehran", thereby ascertaining this much sought after provenance and origin. What is really intriguing is who or what MM is. The full signature is TEHRAN - MM.

Perfect condition with full pile and lush, long original fringes.

What our customers say!

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 🇺🇸

 

 

“I practically furnished my entire home with carpets from Hadi. The process was not only a joy but it was also a learning experience for me. Hadi was super helpful in identifying the right pieces for my home that would both work with my taste, budget, sizes required and that would be a good investment for my family. Hadi’s collection is second to none, and his knowledge and service is truly the blessing on top.” Amr Banaja, Public Investment Fund, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

 

“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 🇦🇺
