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.

This 1930 Afghan tribal hallway runner is hand-knotted from wool. The piece displays mellow terracotta and ochre shades with abrash colour shading across the surface. A repeating diamond lattice forms the central field, framed by geometric borders and interspersed with octagonal motifs. Signs of age include slight wear in places on the flat pile, alongside soft fringing along the shorter ends and characteristic colour variation throughout the weave. Measuring 260 cm wide by 106 cm deep and 1 cm high, this narrow floor covering fits naturally into an English country house interior aesthetic. It suits placement as a practical floor covering in a long hallway, narrow passage, or passageway where a traditional wool carpet adds warmth and texture underfoot.

FAQs

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush head, treat spills immediately with cool water, and lay the rug over a quality non-slip underlay.

Position the long runner in entrance hallways, along corridors, or beside a bed to add geometric pattern, warmth, and organic texture to contemporary decor schemes.

Authentic pieces feature natural colour variations known as abrash, hand-knotted back structures displaying subtle weaver irregularities, aged wool pile, and soft, flexible backing.

These textiles are woven using hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a wool warp and weft foundation, coloured with traditional vegetable and mineral dyes.

Antique Afghan runners are long, narrow hand-knotted textiles crafted by tribal weavers in Central Asia, characterised by geometric repeat patterns, distinct borders, and warm natural dye palettes.
