A stunning example from the Ottoman Baroque Period, this gorgeous rug has a large garland of roses in the center and four bouquets of flowers at the corners, all floating on a heart ♥️ stopping red field. Beautiful! The border is also flowery and has no minor guard stripes nor any straight lines. It's a real pity they didn't do many of these but it makes this baby so much more precious and important.
I must say this one of the most enriching carpet purchase experiences I ever had. This was not a mere transaction but more an experience about art and history. Dr Maktabi's experience and knowledge in this space is second to none. Highly recommended! R.A., Doha, Qatar
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 🇱🇧
“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 🇦🇺
