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.
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.
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.

Heriz rugs originate from northwestern Iran and are distinguished by their bold, rectilinear geometric patterns rather than curvilinear designs. They typically feature a large, prominent central medallion surrounded by defined spandrels and broad multi-tiered borders.

These carpets are hand-knotted using coarse wool pile tied onto a heavy cotton warp and weft foundation. The local wool is rich in copper content due to regional soil, contributing to durable fibers that hold vegetable dyes exceptionally well over time.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-tied symmetrical knots, subtle colour variations known as abrash, and a sturdy, thick structure. The reverse side clearly shows the hand-woven knot structure and line variations, unlike machine-made imitations.

A geometric Heriz rug acts as an anchor in both traditional and modern schemes. Place it beneath neutral furniture to let the bold red and navy pattern stand out, or pair it with dark timber and warm leather for a cohesive look.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling fibres. Clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean, dry cloth, and rotate the rug annually to balance wear and light exposure.
