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

Khamseh rugs were woven by nomadic confederations in South-West Persia, primarily during the 19th and early 20th centuries. They are recognized by geometric motifs, stylized bird or animal imagery, and rich vegetable dye palettes dominated by deep reds, blues, and ivory.

These tribal carpets were hand-woven using locally sourced hand-spun wool for both the pile and the warp and weft foundation. Natural vegetable and mineral dyes were used to create stable, long-lasting colours.

Authentic 19th-century Khamseh pieces feature soft hand-spun wool, natural colour variations known as abrash, and distinct tribal iconography such as bird motifs. The flexible structure and subtle geometric irregularities reflect traditional nomadic loom production.

A rich tribal carpet anchors a living space by introducing visual texture, geometry, and historical depth. It creates contrast when placed against contemporary minimal furniture or harmonises with traditional dark wood cabinetry.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush head to prevent fiber pulling. Using a quality underlay controls wear, while periodic reverse vacuuming and prompt spot-cleaning with damp cloths maintain the textile.
