Archival Detail
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.

Luri rugs are hand-woven textiles crafted by nomadic Lur tribes of western Iran, known for bold geometric patterns, deep indigo and terracotta tones, and stylized tribal motifs.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheeps wool for both the pile and foundation, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authentic examples feature wool-on-wool construction, subtle natural dye variations known as abrash, stepped diamond medallions, and small tribal pictograms scattered across the field.

A tribal rug adds visual texture and colour to minimalist, mid-century, or bohemian interiors, functioning as an anchor piece for seating areas or living rooms.

Vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to balance light exposure and foot traffic, and clean spills immediately using cold water and neutral detergent.
