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

Baluch rugs are hand-woven nomadic textiles originating from the border regions of Persia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, known for geometric motifs and deep, rich colour palettes.

These rugs are constructed using hand-spun wool on wool or goat hair foundations, coloured using natural dyes derived from plants, roots, and minerals.

Authentic pieces feature flexible wool foundations, geometric latch-hook or chevron designs, dark colour schemes, and kilim flat-weave bands at the fringes.

A tribal rug acts as a grounding accent piece, contrasting effectively with natural timber furniture, leather upholstery, or neutral contemporary backgrounds.

Gently vacuum without a rotating brush bar, rotate regularly to ensure balanced wear, and clean spills immediately with cold water or consult a specialist textile restorer.
