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

Originating from the central Iranian city of Isfahan, these carpets are characterised by high knot densities, intricate arabesque motifs, and balanced floral compositions.

High-grade wool, often fine lambswool, is knotted onto a silk or cotton warp and weft foundation to allow for precise patterning and durability.

Key indicators include a flexible handle, fine knotting visible on the reverse side, natural dye variations known as abrash, and detailed floral palmette designs.

These carpets serve as foundational grounding elements, anchoring contemporary or classic spaces through visual texture and contrasting colour palettes.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush bar, rotate periodically to distribute traffic wear, and consult a professional restorer for specialist cleaning.
