“Haji Sattar made me feel as though he was my uncle the very first time I met him,” recalled Afghan author Qais Akbar Omar. “He was warm, welcoming, and generous with his time. He treated all his friends like his family, but what I liked about him the most was that he was a wonderful storyteller, who was a master of the art. No matter how much work he had, he would take his time to tell a good story.” In early 2001 He opened a warehouse in Hamburg’s Speicherstadt managed by his brother Wase Rasul. The very year He also set up similar operation at the Oriental Carpet Centre in London, run by his other brother Wahead, but closed the London warehouse in 2014. Haji Sattar consolidated his European operations in Hamburg, where he was joined by his son Wahab Rasul three years ago. As a frequent visitor to Europe, He had planned to be in Hamburg on June 2021 but He could not make it due to the deadly disease that took his life. 2/2 He would be always remembered and missed! May His soul Rest in Peace! #SatarCarpet #SatarCarpetGmbH #orientalcarpet #handmadecarpets #orientalrugs #handmaderugs #kelims #handmadekelims #inspirational #throwback #unforgettable
The Man Behind SATAR CARPET! Abdul Sattar known as “Haji Sattar” among people in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India as well as Europe, America and other parts of the world was the Founder of “Satar Carpet” who passed away in Kabul, on June 22 of Covid-19. Known for his personal warmth and his ever-present smile, Haji Sattar had a well-earned reputation as an honest broker who bought and sold carpets at fair prices. He always made sure to pay the weavers on the spot and provided carpet dealers worldwide with reliable quality. He was a regular visitor for years at Domotex and He started exhibiting at Domotex since 2001. At Domotex fair he offered both the traditional pieces he acquired from the bazaars as well as stunningly fresh designs that he commissioned from Afghanistan and Pakistan’s top carpet producers. For years he also had carpet and kellim production sites in Peshawar, Pakistan where he excelled in producing some top modern designs known as Darya and Kandar just to name a few. Haji Sattar was born in 1955 in the picturesque hill town of Istalif about 30km north of Kabul. A leather worker as a youth, he was introduced to the handmade carpet trade by his Father in Law known as “Haji Ibrahim” who was also one of the top carpet dealers of his time in Kabul, and soon moved into carpet trading full time. Early on, he developed an eye for spotting well-made carpets that he sold to the steady flow of foreigners coming to Kabul in pre-war hippie trail days. Later as conflict engulfed Kabul, he relocated along with thousands of other Afghans to Peshawar, Pakistan, where he set up a successful carpet wholesale operation in the Khyber Bazaar. With his engaging personality, he was the confidant of and mentor to scores of merchants who plied the Peshawar carpet bazaars. A man who could keep secrets and disdained gossip, he nonetheless loved sharing his profound knowledge of the Handmade carpet industry, and always with a twinkle in his eye. 1/2 #SatarCarpet #SatarCarpetGmbH #orientalcarpet #handmadecarpets #orientalrugs #handmaderugs #kelims #handmadekelims #inspirational #throwback #unforgettable
