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.

A Qashqai saddlebag face, historically known as a khorjin face, is the woven front panel of a double cargo bag crafted by nomadic Qashqai tribes in South-West Persia for transport on pack animals.

These textiles are woven using hand-spun wool for both the warp and wet, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes. Some examples feature small cotton or silk highlights to emphasize geometric motifs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-spun wool with natural abrash dye variations, flexible handle, asymmetric hand-knotted pile or flatweave construction, and traditional tribal iconography such as stepped diamonds and latch-hook borders.

These compact woven panels can be mounted and framed as wall art, draped over small side tables, converted into decorative accent cushions, or displayed on textile stands.

Keep the textile out of direct sunlight to prevent natural dye fading. Vacuum gently using a suction-only attachment, avoid high humidity to protect wool fibres, and consult a professional rug restorer for specialized cleaning.
