Archival Detail
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.

Qashqai rugs were traditionally woven by the nomadic Qashqai tribes originating from the Fars province in southwestern Persia. Known for their spontaneous weaver-inspired geometric, zoomorphic, and floral compositions, these carpets reflect centuries of nomadic heritage and culture.

Authentic Qashqai carpets are constructed predominantly using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation warps and wefts. The wool was historically dyed using natural plant and mineral sources, resulting in saturated colours and subtle variations known as abrash.

Authentic pieces generally feature a soft, flexible wool foundation rather than rigid cotton, along with fine symmetrical or asymmetrical hand knotting. Visual markers include tribal stylisations such as peacocks, stylized flora, multi-medallion central fields, and distinctive geometric borders such as the Shekarlu pattern.

A large tribal carpet acts as a foundational anchor on polished concrete, stone, or hardwood floor surfaces. The bold colour palette and graphic motifs complement both eclectic, bohemian aesthetics and minimalist contemporary furniture by adding textural warmth.

Vacuum the rug regularly without using a rotating brush or beater bar to avoid pulling the wool fibres. Promptly blot liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth, rotate the carpet annually to ensure uniform foot traffic wear, and seek professional hand-washing specialists for deep cleaning.
