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 Kashkuli rugs are woven by the Kashkuli subtribe of the nomadic Qashqai confederation in southwestern Iran. They are characterised by fine hand-spun wool, high knot density, and structured geometric diamond medallions.

Authentic 19th-century tribal rugs utilise hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the warp and weft foundation. Dyes were extracted from natural plant and insect sources, such as madder root for red tones and indigo for blue hues.

Authentic pieces exhibit soft, hand-spun wool, subtle colour variations (abrash) caused by small dye batches, and a flexible structural handle. The reverse side demonstrates irregular hand-knotted construction typical of portable tribal looms.

Geometric tribal rugs provide pattern and warm colour accents within minimalist, modern, or classic interior schemes. Laying the rug over neutral wooden floorboards creates visual contrast and anchors central furniture groupings.

Vacuuming should be conducted using suction only to protect the pile fibres, while prolonged exposure to direct sunlight must be limited to prevent fading. Periodic cleaning should be handled by a specialist antique textile restorer.
