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

Silk prayer rugs, traditionally crafted in key weaving centres across Persia and Anatolia, feature archway designs known as mihrabs alongside floral motifs, serving both practical devotional purposes and decorative artistic functions.

Antique silk rugs are hand-knotted using fine silk threads on silk or cotton warps, allowing for high knot counts that create detailed, fluid patterns and a lustrous sheen.

Authentic silk rugs demonstrate subtle natural colour variations, intricate reverse-side patterning matching the front design, hand-tied fringe roots integrated into the warp foundation, and a soft drape.

Small silk rugs can be displayed as textile wall hangings, placed atop larger neutral wool carpets to layer texture, or positioned in low-traffic seating areas to showcase decorative detail.

Preserve silk rugs by keeping them out of direct sunlight, avoiding heavy footfall, dusting gently with a soft brush rather than a vacuum, and consulting a specialist textile conservator for professional cleaning.
