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

An ensi is a specialised textile woven by Turkmen nomadic tribes, historically used as a curtain or door hanging for the entrance of a yurt. Characterised by a distinctive divided field layout, often featuring a cross pattern or niche motifs, these rugs combine functional shelter with symbolic tribal art.

Antique Saryk weavings are primarily constructed using hand-spun wool for the pile, warp, and weft. Saryk pieces frequently incorporate white cotton yarn within the design highlights to create contrast against deep red, brown, and navy wool pile.

Authentic 19th-century Turkmen rugs display natural vegetable dyes that produce deep aubergine, brownish-red, and indigo tones. Examination of the reverse reveals dense hand-knotting, symmetric or asymmetric knot structures depending on the tribe, and natural wear patterns consistent with age.

Antique tribal rugs provide textural depth and rich colour palettes that anchor minimalist or contemporary spaces. They can be layered over neutral flat-weave carpets, placed in hallways or studies, or mounted on walls as framed textile art.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating beater bar to prevent fibre damage. Position a dense underlay beneath the rug to prevent slipping and absorb friction, and consult a specialist antique rug restorer for periodic cleaning.
