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.

Tekke Turkmen rugs are hand-knotted textiles woven by the Tekke tribe of Central Asia, known for their repeating octagonal gul motifs and deep terracotta red shades.

These rugs are hand-woven from hand-spun wool on a wool foundation, using natural vegetable and insect dyes such as madder and cochineal to create rich colour tones.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical knots, high knot density, distinct primary Tekke gul motifs with smaller secondary guls, and subtle colour variations known as abrash.

A classic tribal rug provides structure and texture when paired with polished floorboards, dark wood furniture, leather seating, or contemporary minimalist decor.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear, use a supportive underlay, and consult a specialist for professional cleaning.
