The finesse of drawing and the quality of natural dyes in this outrageously beautiful Kerman masterpiece are beyond compare. I absolutely and totally love it. The Shah & Prince 👑 are as realistic as any Qajar painting while the background architecture and animals imbue the carpet with vivid charm. And the colors!
Just back from its first spa since the XIX Century! Commissioned & signed by the famous duo Milani & Shoar. It seems to depict Mohammad Shah Qajar (1834-1848), being the only Qajar ruler with a short beard.
“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 🇸🇦
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 🇱🇧
