This dreamy Persian carpet answers the time old question succinctly: why are Seirafian rugs considered to be the best to be made in the mid to late 20th century?
This timeless classic boasts an unusual and attractive camel-honey tone. The famous Seirafian Eslimi pattern is in full bloom here, perfectly poised and elegantly executed. The knot count is quite high too. Silk foundation and silk flowers throughout.
Grand Master Mojtaba is the son of the legendary Grand Master Mohamamd Seirafian, himself the son of the founder of the weaving dynasty, Haj Reza.
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
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.

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 🇦🇺
