JBOC Note: Haddad is a famous name in Tabriz Rugs. Sheikh Hassan Haddad was the great master weaver in Tabriz in the late 19th century. Since the work of which I know is circa 1890 then it is possibly this could be by the same master but since there is a gap of 40 years then I suspect a son of the legendary master might be more likely.
