Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Dagestan prayer rugs originate from the North Caucasus region and are characterised by their geometric hand-knotted construction, a central prayer arch motif known as a mihrab, and structured lattice patterning produced during the nineteenth century.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, coloured with dyes derived from local plant and mineral sources.

Authentic nineteenth-century Dagestan rugs feature a wool warp and weft, subtle dye shifts known as abrash, architectural mihrab outlines, and intricate star or geometric borders.

A geometric tribal rug can be situated on light timber flooring or layered over plain natural fibre mats to provide structural pattern in minimalist or contemporary living spaces.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only nozzle without a rotating brush, rotate the piece periodically to distribute foot traffic evenly, and engage a specialist textile restorer for professional cleaning.
