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

Bag face cushions are crafted from the woven fronts of traditional nomadic storage bags, known as khorjin or mafrash, which were originally used to transport goods across Central Asia and the Middle East before being repurposed into decorative soft furnishings.

These textiles are typically hand-knotted or flat-woven using hand-spun sheep wool dyed with natural plant and mineral pigments, constructed on portable ground looms by nomadic weavers.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural variations in hand-spun yarn, slight asymmetry in the geometric patterns, subtle colour variations known as abrash, and traditional woven selvages or structural backing.

These rich textiles add pattern and tactile interest when placed on neutral leather armchairs, tailored contemporary sofas, or layered alongside modern soft furnishings to create an eclectic contrast.

Vacuum gently using a low-suction upholstery attachment without a rotating brush, spot clean sparingly with cold water, and seek specialist dry cleaning when necessary to preserve natural dyes.
