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

A Bakhtiari garden carpet, originating from the Zagros Mountains region of Persia, features a distinctive grid or compartment design known as khesti. Each panel typically depicts floral motifs, cypress trees, or garden scenes, reflecting traditional Persian horticultural motifs.

These carpets are hand-knotted using durable hand-spun wool pile woven onto a strong cotton or wool foundation. Natural dyes derived from plants and minerals were historically used to create rich hues of terracotta, indigo, and ivory.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-tied knots with slight irregularities in symmetry, hand-spun wool with natural abrash colour variations, and flexible, unbacked foundations. The signature multi-panel garden grid pattern with distinct repeating botanical motifs is also a key identifier.

A Bakhtiari carpet acts as an anchor in neutral or classic spaces, introducing texture and complex geometry. It complements dark wood furnishings, leather upholstery, and minimalist rooms seeking historical depth.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting to avoid damaging the pile fibres, and rotate the carpet annually to distribute foot traffic evenly. Professional specialised rug cleaning is recommended to preserve natural dyes and structural integrity.
