Story

Frankly, a very Royal Qajar Carpet.

Woven with the finest, softest, shiniest Manchester Kork wool, spun in the Victorian textile mills of Great Britain and imported at great cost to Persia where it was intended to be used for formal abayas and turbans. Instead, the skilled entrepreneurs of Kashan put it to good use in their carpets.

The royal dynasty's coat of arms is proudly displayed beneath the glittering crown: no jewels, entirely in wool!

Full pile, original ends
Woven with love in Kashan circa 1890

To me personally there is no surprise, event or frankly anything that gets me more excited than the purchase of a treasured piece of understated artwork such as that of a proper vintage/antique carpet. The sourcing, grading and authentication of these pieces is no small task but is of the highest importance. Through the respected dealer Hadi Maktabi all that is guaranteed, and rest assured the one thing I can guarantee personally as a client is a first class service from the initial selection process till it gets delivered right to your door step. It was an undeniably special experience, with hundreds of carpets to choose from, will definitely be visiting again. Thank you dear Hadi. Habeeb Al Monawer, Kuwait ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ผ

 

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
